Description
These roasted Brussels sprouts with crispy bacon, maple syrup, and Dijon mustard are sweet, savory, and irresistibly caramelized. A perfect holiday or weeknight side dish!
Ingredients
▢ 1½ pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
▢ 4 slices bacon, diced
▢ 2 tablespoons olive oil
▢ 2 tablespoons maple syrup
▢ 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
▢ ½ teaspoon salt
▢ ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
2. In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3. Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Scatter diced bacon evenly over the top.
4. Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until Brussels sprouts are tender and golden and bacon is crispy.
5. For extra crispiness, roast for a few additional minutes—just keep an eye to prevent burning.
6. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
• For even crispier edges, use convection setting if your oven has one.
• Try adding a drizzle of balsamic glaze just before serving for extra depth.
• You can prep everything ahead—just roast before serving.
