Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare Brussels Sprouts: In a large bowl, toss Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.
Roast Brussels Sprouts: Spread the Brussels sprouts cut side down on the baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Make Balsamic Glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, and Dijon mustard. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Drizzle with Glaze: Remove Brussels sprouts from the oven, transfer to a serving dish, and drizzle with the balsamic glaze.
Garnish and Serve: Garnish with optional pomegranate seeds or nuts, if desired. Serve immediately.

For extra sweetness, you can increase the amount of maple syrup in the glaze.
Feel free to add other seasonings like garlic powder or red pepper flakes for added flavor.
Ensure Brussels sprouts are dry before roasting to achieve maximum crispiness.
