Ingredients

• 1 pound Brussels sprouts
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
• 0.25 cup Pecans (optional, chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any tough outer leaves. Slice them in half if they are large.

Step 3

Place the Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper, then toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Spread the Brussels sprouts into a single layer on the baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender.

Step 5

While the Brussels sprouts are roasting, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small saucepan, heat the balsamic vinegar and honey over medium heat. Stir occasionally and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened, then remove from heat.

Step 6

Once the Brussels sprouts are done roasting, transfer them to a serving bowl. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top and toss to coat.

Step 7

Add the dried cranberries and chopped pecans, if using, and gently mix.

Step 8

Serve warm and enjoy!
