Whole Roasted Brussels Sprouts

When roasted whole, Brussels sprouts get brown and crispy on the outside, soft and creamy on the inside. I love this no-fuss delicious way to cook them and think you will too.

When I used to roast Brussels sprouts I always trimmed off the ends and then cut them in half. I was feeling lazy last time though and left them whole. It was a mind-blowing experience. Truly.

Why Roast Brussels Sprouts Whole?

How were they different? By keeping them whole, the insides were very protected. This made them super-soft in the middle, like mashed potato almost. On the outside, really dark and crunchy. If you’re a Brussels sprouts fan, and even if you’re not, you’ve really got to give these a try. Seriously good.
