Delicious, crispy and caramelized brussel sprouts are easier than you think with this super simple oven roasted method!

Roasted Brussel Sprouts Recipe

I firmly believe that this method of cooking brussel sprouts is the easiest ever! With a few minor variations to the cooking temperature and time that are noted below, you can make the perfect roasted brussel sprouts that fit your personal or family preferences!

My personal favorite is to have a nice crispy exterior on my brussels sprouts, with a tender inside. Thankfully, my family agrees that brussel sprouts of any cook method are pretty wonderful!

For us, these roasted brussel sprouts are a regular part of our weeknight family dinners. However, they’re just as suitable for a holiday meal or special occasion ( since I absolutely love brussel sprouts, these were on the table for Mother’s Day )!

How To Make Oven Roasted Brussel Sprouts

To pan roast your brussel sprouts in the oven, preheat the oven to 400ºF ( 204ºC ) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. *There is the argument that you get crispier baked brussel sprouts when cooked directly on the baking sheet. However, I prefer the ease of cleanup and the level of tenderness that I get with the parchment paper.

Prepare your brussel sprouts by trimming the ends, rinsing, and cutting large brussel sprouts in half lengthwise. Frozen brussel sprouts, once thawed, can be halved if needed but should be trimmed and ready to use.

Place the prepared brussel sprouts on your parchment paper lined baking sheet, then drizzle with olive oil. Season with coarse or fresh ground salt and pepper, then toss to coat thoroughly.

Spread the brussel sprouts out with some spacing between them, so that they cook evenly. *Crowded brussel sprouts will end up being steamed, rather than roasted.

Place the baking sheet of brussel sprouts into your preheated oven and cook for 30 to 35 minutes. Shake the tray about every 7 to 8 minutes to roast the brussel sprouts evenly, and make sure that they are evenly distributed on the baking sheet while they continue to cook.

Watch the brussel sprouts closely toward the end of their cooking time, as they tend to finish quickly. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.

Serve your oven roasted brussel sprouts with garlic red skin mashed potatoes, oven roasted bone in chicken breast, Parmesan crusted pork chops, or my perfect pan seared ribeye steak!

Cooking Times for Roasted Brussel Sprouts

  • Bake at 375ºF ( 190ºC ) for 20-25 minutes for tender, caramelized brussel sprouts
  • Bake at 400ºF ( 204ºC ) for 30-35 minutes for crispy, tender and caramelized brussel sprouts
  • Bake at 425ºF ( 218ºC ) for 25-30 minutes for crispy roasted brussel sprouts
  • Bake at 450ºF ( 232ºC ) for 15-25 minutes for extra crispy roasted brussel sprouts

TIPS:

  1. The size of your brussel sprouts will determine when they are done, as larger brussel sprouts will simply take longer to cook through.
  2. High temps can burn your olive oil, which will make your brussel sprouts taste burnt. If you want your brussel sprouts incredibly crispy, bake them as directed then turn the heat up for the last 10 minutes.
  3. That wonderful nutty flavor of brussel sprouts is best when they are not under-cooked or over-cooked.
  4. Crowded brussel sprouts can end up mushy due to the ‘steamed’ cooking effect of not getting enough heat through evenly and on all sides.

  • Place baking sheet of sprouts in your preheated oven and roast for 30 to 35 minutes. Shake the baking sheet occasionally during the cooking time (every 7-8 minutes) to roast evenly. Watch the brussel sprouts closely toward the end of the cooking time to prevent burning, as they will finish quickly. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
