    Ingredient Notes

    These are the ingredients that you will need to make this brussels sprouts recipe. They are easy to locate at your local grocery store.

    ingredients to make brussels sprouts on marble surface
    1. Brussels Sprouts - You will need one pound of cleaned, trimmed, and halved fresh brussels sprouts.
    2. Olive Oil or Avocado Oil - May use olive oil or avocado, which ever on that you prefer.
    3. Maple Syrup - Provide a sweet element to these brussels sprouts and also helps them to get a nice caramelized layer while roasting.
    4. Bacon - This is an option ingredient to toss in before serving for a bit of savory saltiness.
    5. Garlic Powder - A needed seasoning, if you prefer to use minced garlic instead, then it is perfetly fine to use two cloves.
    6. Salt - Helps to pull the water from the brussel sprouts to make them a little crispy on the outside.
    7. Ground Black Pepper - A stable seasoning that pairs with salt.

    See the recipe card below for ingredient quantities.

    Instructions

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare the bacon in a skillet until it is crispy and chop it into small pieces. Set aside. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Wash, trim and cut the fresh brussels sprouts in halves. Add the prepared brussels sprouts to a large bowl. Top the brussels sprouts with olive oil or avocado oil, maple syrup, garlic powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Toss to evenly coat the brussels sprouts.

    Equipment

    There are only a few pieces of equipment needed to make this side dish recipe. Primarily you will need a large baking sheet to roast the brussels sprouts in the oven. Line the baking sheet with some parchment paper for easier cleanup and to prevent sticking.

    You will also need a skillet to cook the bacon in and a mixing bowl to combine the ingredients together with ease.

    Storage

    If you just so happen to have any leftover brussels sprouts, store them in an airtight container or plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Serve them warm by reheating them or cold.

    Top Tip

    For a little something more, before serving these brussels sprouts, top with some crumbled feta cheese and/or dried cranberries.
