Place the sprouts in a bowl and mix in the parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Feel free to switch around the spices, but I like to keep it simple.

Tips for making

Cut the brussel sprouts in quarters if they are very large. This creates more surface area for the brussels to get golden and crispy.
Spread the sprouts in a single layer on the baking sheet. If they are too crowded, they will steam rather than crisp up.
Use freshly grated parmesan. It’s a little more effort to grate it, but it’s totally worth it. Pre grated has much less flavor with a dry texture.
Fully coat the sprouts in the oil. This will help them to get crispy all over the outside. If some of the spouts don’t have a coating of oil on them, they will soften rather than than caramelize. It’s best to use your hands to really get in there!

Frequently asked questions

Can you reheat roasted Brussel sprouts?

These parmesan garlic sprouts are best served as soon as they are ready, but it you do have leftovers, it’s best to reheat them in the oven, this way they won’t be soggy. Reheat them at 350°F for 10 to 15 minutes.

Can you make them ahead of time?

You can prep these sprouts the day before and keep them covered in the fridge. When you are ready to roast them, you just need to place them on a baking sheet and pop them in the oven.

Can you roast the sprouts the day before?

If you like, you can partly roast the spouts the day before you are due to serve them. Roast them for 15 minutes, let them cool and keep them refrigerated. The next day, let them come up to room temperature and roast at 425°F for 10 minutes to get them nice and crispy.

Ingredients

▢ 1 pound brussel sprouts
▢ 2 tablespoons olive oil
▢ ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese
▢ 1 teaspoon garlic powder
▢ ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the outer, yellow-ish leaves of the brussel sprouts off, trim the ends, then cut them in half.
Place brussel sprouts in a large bowl, drizzle olive oil on top, and sprinkle with parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Transfer the brussel sprouts to the prepared baking sheet, and roast in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes, depending on their size. Shake the pan every few minutes for even roasting.
Transfer the brussel sprouts to a serving dish and serve warm with crushed red pepper flakes, if desired.
