Ingredients & Substitutions

These are the main ingredients and substitutions for honey sriracha Brussels sprouts. Scroll down to the recipe card for full ingredients list and instructions.

Use fresh not frozen Brussels sprouts for best results. Frozen may be used, but they tend to be slightly less crispy. Trim stems off Brussels sprouts and slice larger ones in half. I like to have a mix of halved and whole sprouts.

Olive oil coats the vegetable before roasting. It allows for the Brussels to get nice and crispy. Avocado oil, melted coconut oil, or even melted butter can be used.

A little sea salt and pepper seasons the Brussels. This adds a touch of flavor while not being overpowering.

Honey adds a great natural sweetness. It also adds a bit of stickiness, which translates well to Brussels sprouts. For Vegan, use date syrup or maple syrup.

Sriracha sauce packs all the heat! Feel free to use less for a more mild flavor. I usually buy mine at Trader Joe’s.
