A festive and easy vegetable side dish perfect for holiday meals or any dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 2 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • Optional: 1/4 cup toasted pecans or walnuts

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
  5. While the sprouts are roasting, whisk together the maple syrup, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl.
  6. Once the sprouts are tender, remove them from the oven.
  7. Drizzle the maple glaze over the roasted Brussels sprouts and toss to coat.
  8. Return to the oven for 2-3 minutes to allow the glaze to thicken slightly.
  9. Serve immediately, garnished with crumbled bacon and toasted nuts if desired.

Notes

  • For a sweeter glaze, use pure maple syrup.
  • Adjust the amount of balsamic vinegar to your preference for tanginess.
  • Ensure your baking sheet is large enough to avoid overcrowding the sprouts, which can lead to steaming instead of roasting.
  • This recipe is a great alternative to traditional heavy holiday sides and can be part of a balanced meal plan.
