- Always roast the brussels sprouts on a rimmed baking sheet. As the sprouts cook, some of the maple glaze will naturally drip off of the sprouts onto the baking sheet. You want to make sure that the glaze stays on the baking sheet and does not drip down into the bottom of your oven.
- Try to purchase brussels sprouts that are similar in size. This means they’ll cook evenly. When purchasing whole brussels sprouts, make sure their color is bright green, and not yellow. And make sure that they are firm when squeezed. Smaller brussels sprouts will be naturally sweeter and more tender, so I recommend buying sprouts that are around 1 – 1 1/2 inches in length. The larger sprouts will taste more like cabbage.
- Before starting this recipe, you’ll want to trim off the ends of the brussels sprouts and cut them in half. Any of the outer leaves that naturally fall off during this process should be discarded.
