This recipe provides simple instructions for roasting carrots and Brussels sprouts coated in a sweet and savory maple glaze, making it an easy, nourishing side dish for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts and cut carrots with the olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 15 minutes.
  5. While the vegetables roast, whisk together the maple syrup and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl to create the glaze.
  6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle the maple glaze mixture evenly over the vegetables. Gently toss the vegetables on the sheet to coat them well.
  7. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the glaze has caramelized slightly. Watch carefully during the last few minutes to prevent burning.
  8. Serve immediately as a sweet and savory vegetable side dish.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder to the initial oil toss.
  • To achieve good caramelization without burning, ensure your vegetables are in a single layer on the pan before glazing.
  • If your Brussels sprouts are very large, cut them into quarters for more even cooking with the carrots.
