Easy Miso Glazed Roasted Brussels Sprouts
You guys HAVE to try this super easy miso glazed roasted brussels sprouts recipe. It’s currently my favorite way to eat Brussels sprouts right now. It’s so flavorful and has the perfect combination of salty, sweet, tang, and spice! I love miso so anything with miso in it is calling my name! The trick to roasting Brussels sprouts is making sure you leave it in the oven until they are charred looking, but not burnt! It’s extra delicious and ensures a crispy exterior while still being cooked all the way through. Also, you don’t want to add the maple syrup until you are done roasting since it can make your Brussels sprouts burn faster. You could make this for Thanksgiving or any day of the week. My favorite way to eat it is with some rice and crispy tofu! It’s like comfort food to me!
Easy Miso Glazed Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Ingredients
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts, ends trimmed and halved (I usually buy 1.25 lbs since after trimming, it turns out to be about 1 lb)
- 1 tbsp avocado oil (or any high heat oil)
- 2 tbsp miso paste
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tsp pure maple syrup
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 1/4 tsp red chili flakes (optional if you want spice)
- sesame seeds to sprinkle on top (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the avocado oil, miso paste, and vinegar. Whisk until well combined. Add the halved Brussels sprouts and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until all the Brussels are evenly coated with the miso mixture. (We don’t add the maple syrup until the end because it makes the Brussels sprouts burn faster.)
- Place on the baking sheet, making sure the Brussels sprouts are not touching each other and most are facing cut side down (it’s okay if not all of them are). Also, make sure you don’t over crowd the pan. Bake for about 25-30 minutes. You want them basically charred looking, but not burnt.
- Remove from pan and place back into the mixing bowl you were using. Add the maple syrup, sesame oil, and optional chili flakes. Stir until combined. Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top and enjoy!
