Crispy, caramelized Brussels sprouts with a tangy-sweet balsamic glaze. A simple and delicious side dish.
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and browned, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and maple syrup.
Once the Brussels sprouts are done, remove from the oven and drizzle with the balsamic glaze. Toss to coat evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

Don't overcrowd the baking sheet! This will steam the Brussels sprouts instead of roasting them properly. Use two baking sheets if necessary.
For extra crispy Brussels sprouts, you can broil them for the last few minutes of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Add a squeeze of lemon juice after roasting for extra brightness.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave.
