    Honey Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts - perfectly oven-roasted sprouts tossed with sweet and tangy honey balsamic combo just before serving. Make with fresh or frozen Brussels sprouts for a quick and easy side dish idea that's bursting with flavor!

    These Honey Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts are a great side dish to chicken, turkey, pork or beef.

    HONEY BALSAMIC ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS

    Fragrant and perfectly roasted vegetables, tossed with sweet and tangy dressing (that's made with only 2 ingredients) is one of the easiest side dishes you will make. The flavor is quite unique as you combine the roasted, caramelized flavor of the veggies with honey and balsamic vinegar. The warm veggies will soak up the dressing and quickly become your favorite side dish recipe.

    You can use frozen or fresh sprouts and only adjust the roasting time. And while you devour these delicious sprouts, check out another of my irresistible roasted Brussels sprouts recipes: Garlic Parmesan Brussels Sprouts. It's a huge hit with so many of our readers!

    Honey Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts Ingredients:

    • Brussels sprouts
    • olive oil
    • salt and pepper
    • honey
    • balsamic vinegar

    How to make Honey Balsamic Roasted Brussels Sprouts?

    • If you are using fresh Brussels sprouts, trim the ends. Slice all sprouts in half. Arrange on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil.
    • Roast Brussels sprouts in the oven until you can see browned roasted edges.
    • In a small bowl, whisk together honey and balsamic vinegar. Pour over roasted sprouts and toss to coat.
    • Serve right away.

    Fresh of frozen Brussels sprouts?

    You can use what you have on hand. The difference between frozen (and thawed before cooking) Brussels sprouts and fresh ones is the texture after roasting. Frozen Brussels sprouts will remain soft inside while fresh ones have a tendency to dry out. Both can have a crispy roasted outer layer. Both are equally delicious!

      Great recipe! I made a mistake, however... I took my nice crispy sprouts and drenched them in the balsamic honey mixture. They tasted great - but were very soggy. Be sure to use JUST A DRIZZLE! PS - next time I make this, I will reduce the balsamic honey to a glaze before I use it. (just simmer over a low heat until the mixture thickens up - I like mine very thick, so the drizzle is a dense string)

      If I’m using frozen sprouts and wand to bake them do I defrost them first?

      Look fantastic. I'm one of those people that like them just plain with butter, so this will be delight to try, can't wait. Only question is , do you lay them flat side down or up during roasting?

        Hi James! Thank you for the question. You can lay them cut side down and flip halfway through. I hope this helps!

      I want to make these for Thanksgiving but I am not hosting so they will not be served immediately after cooking. Would you suggest preparing the balsamic and just tossing before serving? Or do you think it will be ok if I fully prepare and serve about an hour after cooking?
      Thank you!

      These were fantastic! Even my vegetable-suspicious family liked them. One tip I found in another recipe was to preheat the cooking sheet.

      Hi, are the Brussels sprouts supposed to be cut in half before cooking? I didn’t see that step in the directions but they appear that way in the photo, so just wanted to verify.
      Thanks!

        Hi Adam! Yep, you can freeze them after roasting. Just make sure to cool them completely and place in freezer-safe bag. They should be fine for up to 3 months. Thaw out in the fridge and heat up in skillet. Hope this helps!

      I think most people think they don't like Brussel sprouts because they have only had them boiled and mushy. I think roasted with the honey and balsamic would taste amazing.
