02 - Whisk olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, garlic powder, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until smooth.
03 - Add Brussels sprouts to the bowl and toss thoroughly to ensure even glaze coverage.

06 - Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The glaze gets sticky and glossy in the oven, turning what could be boring into something that tastes like you spent hours on it.
  • Even people who swear they hate Brussels sprouts will come back for seconds because the honey-mustard balance hits that sweet-savory spot perfectly.
  • Roasting with the cut side down gives you caramelization that's basically impossible to mess up, even on a busy weeknight.
02 -
  • Don't crowd the pan or they'll steam instead of roast—give them space so each piece can brown properly.
  • Flipping halfway is the difference between sprouts that are caramelized all over and ones that are dark on one side and pale on the other.
03 -
  • Cut all your Brussels sprouts roughly the same size so they finish roasting at the same time and no piece is overcooked while another is raw.
  • Don't skip the flip halfway—it's what gives you caramelization on both sides and prevents the glaze from burning in any one spot.
