Roasted brussels sprouts and carrots together just speak volumes about holidays to me.

Have you started thinking about holiday gatherings yet?

I always have to have some crispy air fryer parsnips and/or brussel sprouts with maple flavoring because the flavor is unbeatable.

Crispy air fryer brussel sprouts with parmesan are another favorite, but this brussel sprout recipe is more festive.

In fact, these balsamic roasted brussels sprouts and carrots are great for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.

And this is a great use for leftover cranberries, or you could always throw them in a vibrant cranberry smoothie!

Why You’ll Love Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Carrots

• Easy and Quick – Can you cook brussels sprouts and carrots together? Absolutely! Save yourself time by increasing flavor with this seamless pairing. You could also add in cauliflower, air fryer green beans, or squash. We also love pairing carrots and sweetpotatoes in the oven!
• Delicious sauce – The maple balsamic sauce makes these oven roasted brussels sprouts and carrots undeniable.
• Made on a sheet pan– Because these veggies are oven roasted on a sheet pan, that frees you up to make some other food, clean up, etc. Plus, a sheet pan with a sheet of parchment paper is easy to clean, so save yourself time there!
• Vegan – No matter who you’re entertaining or what type of diet you follow, most people will be able to enjoy this vegan brussel sprouts and carrots recipe. So versatile!

Ingredients for Vegan Roasted Carrots and Brussels Sprouts

Depending on the veggies you use, choose autumn veggies that are high in starch so they can better absorb the flavor, like squash or sweetpotatoes.

Here we’ve used:

• brussels sprouts – I recommend fresh brussels sprouts over frozen. I find frozen brussels sprouts get a bit watery and don’t crunch up as well. Fresh brussel sprouts with maple syrup and balsamic will better hold that liquid in!
• carrots
• cranberries

For the maple balsamic roasted vegetables sauce I prefer, I use

• high heat cooking oil, like avocado oil – It is recommended to use a high heat cooking oil  to prevent oxidation. Essentially, using a cooking oil above its smoke point means it can break down nutrients and create free radicals, which is no bueno in your food!
• maple syrup
• balsamic vinegar
• sea salt and black pepper
• diced rosemary

Brussel sprouts with maple syrup and balsamic are always a game-changer, and anything made on a sheet pan is an excellent time saving strategy.

These individual parchment paper strips save time too!

How to Roast Carrots and Brussel Sprouts in the Oven 

This may seem obvious, because don’t we all know how to make roasted vegetables?

But, sometimes there can be confusion when it comes to different vegetable roasting times. 

Since these are the best roasted carrots and brussels sprouts ever, I had to make them easy.

You’re simply going to combine everything in a bowl, add the sauce, mix and pour them on your sheetpan!

And they’re ready in 30 minutes!

My one must-have for equipment is that I like using these individual parchment papers to make cleanup easier.

I’m all about efficiency, especially when you’re sharing a kitchen with others doing the holiday cooking. 

When I first made these, I was kind of having a Thanksgiving identity crisis because we were set to be in South Africa during Thanksgiving.

You can read South Africa recap and our Zimbabwe safari. 

And while that Thanksgiving was one to remember forever, it was not traditional. I missed my roasted carrots and brussels sprouts!

The food was exceptional, but there’s something to be said about the traditional oven roasted brussel sprouts and carrots with balsamic that you can make in your own kitchen. 

I think you’ll soon agree that these holiday vegan roasted vegetables need to be on your table.

What To Pair With Roasted Vegetables with Brussels Sprouts

The perfect sweet-savory glaze with the maple roasted veggies that make it the perfect roasted fall vegetable dish.

Plus, a little tartness from the cranberries. So many flavors but so much goodness.

I love the color and flavors that roasted veggies with brussel sprouts can bring to side dishes, so here are my favorite pairings:

• mashed potatoes
• instant pot sweet potato casserole
• crispy roast parsnips
• other roasted veggies
• rolls with cranberry strawberry chia sauce
• Vegetarian Spaghetti Stuffed Squash Boats.
• A grain salad, like this Butternut Squash, Beet and Barley Salad
• Quinoa Chocolate Chip Apple Crumble – the best healthy dessert!

I hope you’ll give these easy vegan roasted vegetables a shot and do the same.
