How do you make crispy oven roasted Brussels sprouts?

To make Brussels sprouts extra crispy, dry them thoroughly after washing, cut them in half for maximum surface area, and roast at a high temperature (around 425°F). Place them cut-side down on the baking sheet and don’t overcrowd the pan. A light drizzle of oil and proper spacing ensures crisp edges instead of steamed sprouts.

What’s the best way to reheat crispy Brussels sprouts?

The best way to reheat crispy oven roasted Brussels sprouts is in the oven or air fryer. Avoid the microwave, which makes them soggy. Place sprouts on a baking sheet at 400°F for 5–8 minutes or use the air fryer at 375°F for 3–4 minutes. Both methods revive the crispy texture and caramelized flavor.

Can you roast Brussels sprouts with garlic?

Yes! Roasted sprouts with garlic are one of the easiest and tastiest variations. Add minced garlic or whole cloves during the last 10 minutes of roasting to prevent burning. The garlic mellows as it roasts, infusing the sprouts with rich, savory flavor while the sprouts themselves stay crispy.

Instructions

Prep the Sprouts: Rinse, trim, and slice Brussels sprouts in half. Pat dry thoroughly to remove excess moisture.
Toss with Oil and Seasoning: In a large bowl, combine sprouts, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Arrange on Pan: Spread sprouts cut-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving space between pieces.
Roast Until Crispy: Bake at 425°F for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until edges are golden-brown and crisp.
Finish and Serve: Remove from oven, sprinkle with Parmesan or drizzle with balsamic glaze/lemon juice. Serve hot as a crispy veggie side.

Notes

Drying the Brussels sprouts well before roasting is the key to crispiness. For extra crunch, roast the loose outer leaves alongside the halved sprouts—they turn into sprout chips! If doubling the recipe, use two baking sheets to avoid overcrowding.
