Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel and dice the carrots and halve the Brussels sprouts.
1 pound Brussels sprouts, 1 pound carrots
Season the Vegetables:
Place the vegetables in a large roasting or sheet pan. Be sure to pat them dry with a kitchen towel so the olive sticks to them for roasting.
Drizzle with olive oil, then add the smashed garlic, rosemary sprigs, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat.
2 tablespoons olive oil, 4 large garlic cloves, 2 sprigs fresh rosemary, Salt and pepper
Roast the Vegetables:
Roast in the oven for 45–50 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the vegetables are tender and beginning to brown.
When finished roasting, remove from the oven and allow them to cool for 2 or 3 minutes.
Drizzle maple syrup over the brussel sprouts and carrots. Toss gently and serve.
3 tablespoons maple syrup
Notes
Cut Into Small Pieces: Cut small Brussels sprouts in half to cook more quickly. If they're extra large, cut them into quarters.
Dry Before Roasting: Make sure to tap dry the Brussels sprouts from any excess moisture to become crispy when roasted.
Arrange Vegetables: Before roasting, spread the seasoned veggies out on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Increase Temperature: If you want the vegetables extra crispy, increase the temperature to 425 degrees Fahrenheit during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
Cover With Foil: To keep your veggies from browning too quickly, cover the baking pan with foil.
