US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 °F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  • Cut large Brussels sprouts in half, and keep the smaller ones whole so they roast evenly.
  • Take one slice of bacon and wrap it around each Brussels sprout. Secure the ends with a toothpick to keep everything in place, then set them seam-side down on the baking sheet.
  • Brush or drizzle the wrapped sprouts with maple syrup, then sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Roast for 20–25 minutes, until the bacon is golden and crisp and the sprouts are tender.
  • Let them cool for a few minutes before removing the toothpicks. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Roast the sprouts slightly underdone if making ahead so they crisp up perfectly when reheated.
  • Top with toasted pecans or walnuts for extra crunch.
  • For less sweetness, add a splash of balsamic vinegar or lemon juice.
Serve: Pair with steak, chicken, or pork chops and serve alongside mashed sweet potatoes or rice pilaf.
Store: Let leftovers cool, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Freeze for up to 1 month and reheat in the oven or air fryer at 375 F for 5 to 7 minutes until crisp.
