Cook Time 30 minutesminutes
Total Time 45 minutesminutes
Ingredients
8cupsbrussels sprouts,trimmed and halved
1tablespoonoil (I use avocado oil or olive oil)
Salt to taste
Garlic Pecans
1cuppecans
1largegarlic clove,minced
1tablespoonnutritional yeast
1tablespoonolive oil
1/4teaspoonfine grain sea salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400F.
Spread the trimmed and halved brussels sprouts on a baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and toss until evenly coated. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
Spread the brussels sprouts in a single layer, cut-side down on the baking sheet.
Roast for 20-30 minutes until perfectly roasted and crisp on the outside. Keep an eye on them during the last 5-10 minutes of cooking to avoid burning. The size of the brussels sprouts will affect the baking time. I like to keep mine closer to the 30 minutes to get them crispier.
While the sprouts are roasting, prepare the garlic pecans: In a small bowl, mix all the ingredients together. Spread on a baking sheet and toast for 5 minutes at 400F. You can wait for the sprouts to be done or you can add them during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
Top the roasted brussels sprouts with the garlic pecans. Enjoy!
