Easy Brussels Sprouts Gratin

An easy, low-carb Brussels sprouts gratin featuring Swiss and Parmesan cheeses, perfect as a side dish for special meals.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, halved
  • Olive oil (for frying)
  • 1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus extra for sprinkling
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and lightly brush with olive oil.
  3. Add the halved Brussels sprouts and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green and starting to brown, about 6 minutes. Be careful not to overcook.
  4. Transfer the sprouts to a gratin dish and spread into a flat layer.
  5. In a bowl, combine heavy cream, shredded Swiss cheese, grated Parmesan, salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using. Spoon the mixture evenly over the Brussels sprouts and use a rubber scraper to spread it into a thin layer.
  6. Sprinkle additional Parmesan cheese over the top.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the top is golden brown and the gratin is heated through.
  8. Serve hot.

Notes

This dish can be prepared ahead and refrigerated before baking; just allow it to come to room temperature and bake a bit longer. Avoid overcooking the Brussels sprouts in the pan to maintain texture before baking.
