And to elevate them for the holidays (and beyond), we’re adding crispy roasted garlic, our go-to creamy vegan cheese, dried cherries for a tart-sweet kick, and a rich balsamic reduction. Plus, just 7 ingredients required. Let us show you how it’s done!
How to get perfectly roasted Brussels sprouts?
The key to Brussels sprouts that are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside is to get the cooking temperature right (400 degrees Fahrenheit / 204 degrees Celsius). Too low of a temperature and they’ll be soggy. Too high of a temperature and they’ll burn on the outside but stay raw on the inside. If you’re not sure whether your oven temperature is accurate, using an oven thermometer is an easy and inexpensive way to improve your chances of success in the kitchen! It’s also important to make sure that there is plenty of room between the sprouts. When they’re too close together, they steam and have trouble browning. For even crispier Brussels sprouts, we also like to sear them in a cast iron skillet before roasting in the oven. This is an optional but game-changing step! For this recipe, we also roasted garlic, which helps mellow its intensity and bring out its natural sweetness. If you couldn’t tell, we are huge garlic fans around here! It simply makes everything better. For serving, we added dried cherries for a tart-sweet element, our dairy-free macadamia nut cheese for richness, and balsamic reduction to bring it all together. It’s a magical combination of flavors! We hope you LOVE these roasted Brussels sprouts. They’re:Savory-sweetGarlickyCrispyCheesy& Delicious! They’re the perfect side dish for the holidays and beyond!
