Step-by-Step Instructions for Chili Brussels Sprouts
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, corn flour, salt, chili powder, and garlic powder. Whisk until blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix almond milk with apple cider vinegar and let sit to curdle slightly.
  4. Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and wash thoroughly. Remove any dry leaves.
  5. Dip each Brussels sprout into the almond milk mixture, then roll in the dry batter mixture, and finally coat in panko breadcrumbs.
  6. Arrange the coated Brussels sprouts on the prepared baking tray and bake for approximately 15 minutes or until golden and crispy.
  7. Heat vegan butter in a pan over medium heat. Sauté chopped garlic until fragrant.
  8. Add chili sauce, soy sauce, BBQ sauce, and coconut sugar to the sautéed garlic. Stir until thickened.
  9. Once baked, toss the Brussels sprouts in the sauce until well-coated and serve immediately.

Notes

Serve immediately for best results. Adjust spice levels to your preference, and choose Brussels sprouts that are uniform in size for even cooking.
