 Salt and Pepper to taste

 3 tsp Aleppo Pepper
1

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees farenheit and prepare a baking sheet with some tin foil or parchment paper.

2

Trim the ends off of your brussels sprouts and then blanch them. Boil your brussels sprouts for 10-minutes and then transfer them to ice cold water to cool. You can also steam your brussels sprouts instead of boiling them.

3

Once cooled, toss together your brussels sprouts with the olive oil and spices. I always err on the side of the more spices, the better :)

4

Place your brussels sprouts on your baking sheet. Grab a mason jar, or something of similar size with a flat bottom, and gently press down on your brussels sprouts until "smashed" and flattened.

5

Bake until crispy, about 20-25 minutes. I recommend flipping them halfway through to crisp up both sides.

Serve hot and enjoy!
