To keep your Maple Mustard Roasted Brussels Sprouts fresh, store them in the fridge. Place the sprouts in an airtight container. This helps prevent moisture loss. You can use glass or plastic containers with tight lids. Don’t forget to let them cool first before sealing. For reheating, I recommend using the oven to maintain crispness. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the sprouts on a baking sheet and heat for 10-15 minutes. This method keeps them nice and crispy. If you use a microwave, they may become soggy quickly. So, avoid that if you want the best texture. Can you freeze Maple Mustard Roasted Brussels Sprouts? Yes, you can! First, let them cool completely. Then, place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Remove as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn. For best taste, use them within three months. When you’re ready to eat, thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating. Can I use frozen Brussels sprouts? Yes, you can use frozen Brussels sprouts. However, fresh sprouts give the best taste and texture. Frozen ones may be softer after roasting. If using frozen, adjust cooking time to ensure they roast well. What can I substitute for maple syrup? You can use honey or agave syrup as a substitute for maple syrup. They add sweetness but change the flavor slightly. You can also use brown sugar mixed with water for a similar taste. Why are my Brussels sprouts bitter? Bitter Brussels sprouts can be due to overcooking. Ensure you roast them just right. Also, using old or poorly stored sprouts can lead to bitterness. Try to select fresh ones for the best flavor. What to do if they are not crispy? If your Brussels sprouts are not crispy, spread them out more on the baking sheet. Make sure they have room to roast evenly. Toss them halfway through cooking to help them crisp up. Caloric content per serving One serving of Maple Mustard Roasted Brussels Sprouts has about 150 calories.
