Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure a perfect roast.
Trim and halve your Brussels sprouts, and peel and cube your butternut squash into 1-inch pieces.
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Toss the Brussels sprouts and butternut squash in the honey mixture, coating them evenly.
Spread the veggies out in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Cooking

Bake for about 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through for even caramelization.
Once golden brown and tender, remove from the oven.
Sprinkle with crushed nuts, if using, and serve hot.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes or in the microwave.
