Getting Started
- For truly crispy sprouts, preheat your oven to 200-220°C (390-425°F). Higher heat caramelizes the sugars and prevents steaming, ensuring a golden-brown exterior.
- Spread sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet, leaving space between them. Overcrowding traps moisture, leading to soft, steamed results instead of crisp ones. Use two sheets if necessary.
- Use a high-smoke-point vegan oil like olive oil or avocado oil. A generous coating (1-2 tablespoons per pound of sprouts) helps achieve a uniform crisp and carries seasoning effectively.
- Halve or quarter larger sprouts to ensure even cooking. Trim the woody ends and remove any loose outer leaves before tossing with oil and seasonings.
