Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts halved
  • Oil of your choice suggestion: avocado oil for high heat tolerance; olive oil or other oils work well too
  • 1 teaspoon salt divided
  • 1 teaspoon pepper divided

Optional Toppings:

  • Honey-sriracha or maple-bourbon sauce for extra flavor
  • Ranch dressing on the side for dipping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) for perfectly crispy Brussels sprouts.
  • Prepare the Brussels Sprouts: Slice each Brussels sprout in half lengthwise, from top to stem, aiming to cut through the largest outer leaf for a clean slice.
  • Prep the Baking Sheet: Lightly oil a baking sheet, then sprinkle half the salt and pepper over the oiled surface.
  • Arrange the Sprouts: Place the halved Brussels sprouts cut-side down on the baking sheet.
  • Add More Oil and Seasoning: Drizzle a little extra oil over the Brussels sprouts, then sprinkle the remaining salt and pepper evenly across them.
  • Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 35-40 minutes. The Brussels sprouts should be browned and crispy on the cut side, with the tops slightly softened and caramelized.
  • Serve and Enjoy: These Brussels sprouts are delicious as-is, but if you’d like to add extra flavor, toss them in a sauce like honey-sriracha or maple-bourbon, or serve with a side of ranch for dipping.
