Maple Roasted Brussels Sprouts (Easy Flavorful Side!)

I know Brussels sprouts can be a little tricky, not just to cook, but to actually get your family to eat them. But when I roast them this way, they turn out so much better than expected. The edges get golden and crispy, the maple syrup adds a nice sweetness, and the quick maple sriracha drizzle on top adds just the right finish. Even my kids, who used to push them aside, now ask for seconds without me even saying a word.

Brussels sprouts have a great earthy, nutty flavor on their own, and roasting takes them to another level. I keep the seasoning super simple so that flavor really comes through, and when I’m cooking for my friends, I never skip the sriracha. They’re all about the spice, and I’m definitely not holding back either. Every time I make these for them, the Brussels sprouts are the first thing to go, even before the mains. Ha!

What I love the most is how easy it is to use these throughout the week. I roast a big batch, store them in a container in the fridge, and then toss them into salads or bowls whenever I need something quick. You can easily switch up the flavors or add your favorite spices too. At this point, I wouldn’t even call it just a side dish. And if you’ve never been into Brussels sprouts, this is the recipe that might just change your mind.
