Description

Crispy, cheesy, and tender roasted Brussels sprouts with a savory parmesan crust and a hot honey mustard dipping sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1416 large Brussels sprouts
  • 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp mustard powder
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the whole Brussels sprouts with olive oil in a bowl, then transfer to a baking sheet. Cover tightly with foil and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender.
  2. While roasting, mix the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, mustard powder, and cayenne in a small dish.
  3. Remove sprouts from oven, let cool slightly, trim ends, and cut in half lengthwise. You can gently smash them flat if desired. Season the cut sides with the spice mix.
  4. Place small piles of grated parmesan directly onto the metal baking sheet (do not use parchment). Press each sprout half, cut-side down, firmly into a cheese pile.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cheese is crispy and golden brown. Whisk together mayo, dijon, honey, and hot sauce for the dip while they bake.
  6. Remove from oven, let cool for a moment, then use a spatula to release the crispy sprouts from the pan. Serve warm.

Notes

Do not use parchment paper or silicone mats; the cheese needs direct contact with the pan to crisp properly. Use a block of parmesan, not pre-grated.
