Crispy Brussel Spouts with Maple Bacon Glaze
Brussel Sprouts are one of our favorite veggies. We grab them at the local farmers market and have been able to find a variety of yummy recipes. This one is from Hearth Muse.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 lbs of brussel sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 6 slices of thick cut bacon, chopped
- 2 T olive oil
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 3 T pure maple syrup
- 1 T Dijon mustard
- 1 T apple cider vinegar
- 1 T soy sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Optional – pinch of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°
- Rinse and trim brussel sprouts, cutting in half
- Cut slices of bacon into bite size pieces – I use meat scissors
- Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt and pepper until evenly coated
- In a large oven safe skillet or baking sheet (I use a cast iron skillet) arrange chopped bacon and Brussel sprouts together
- Roast for 25 – 30 minutes, stirring halfway through. The brussel sprouts should get golden and crispy along with the bacon
- While the sprouts roast, whish maple syrup, Dijon mustard, vinegar, soy sauce and garlic powder in a small sauce pan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook 2 – 3 minutes, until slightly thickened.
- Remove roasted sprouts and bacon from the oven. Drizzle the warm maple glaze over them and toss gently to coat.
- Return to the oven for 5 more minutes to carmelize the glaze.
