# How-To Steps:

01 - Set oven to 425°F and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
02 - In a large bowl, whisk olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, garlic powder, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
03 - Add Brussels sprouts to the bowl and toss thoroughly to ensure even glazing.
04 - Place Brussels sprouts cut side down in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
05 - Bake for 20–25 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and caramelized.
06 - Transfer roasted Brussels sprouts to a serving dish, sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • The honey and mustard create a glossy, sticky coating that caramelizes in the oven instead of tasting cloying.
  • Brussels sprouts develop this nutty, buttery flavor when roasted properly, and the glaze amplifies that without drowning it out.
  • Takes less than 40 minutes start to finish, making it perfect for weeknight dinners or holiday sides.
02 -
  • Don't skip patting the sprouts dry—any water clinging to them turns to steam and prevents that crispy, caramelized exterior.
  • Flipping them halfway through matters; one side gets all the attention in the first half, so turn them so the other cut side gets its moment on the hot pan.
03 -
  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper—it prevents sticking and makes cleanup take seconds instead of minutes of scrubbing.
  • Cut the sprouts as evenly as you can so they finish roasting at the same time; straggler pieces that are too big will stay watery inside while the smaller ones char.
