MAPLE ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH BACON AND POMEGRANATES
An easy, healthy, and delicious holiday side dish that all your guests will love! Maple syrup not only adds a subtly sweetness to these savory sprouts but also give your sprouts a delightfully crispy caramelized exterior.
Ingredients
- 2 lbs brussels sprouts ends removed and halved
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 1.5 tbsp maple syrup
- 4 slices of bacon cut into 1/2 inch pieces
- salt and pepper to season
- top with: pomegranate arils and balsamic glaze or pomegranate molasses
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425
- Toss your halved brussels sprouts with oil and maple syrup and season generously with salt and pepper
- Add your seasoned sprouts to a baking sheet in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd the pan (overcrowding will prevent them from getting cripsy)
- Sprinkle your bacon slices over top
- Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, toss, and then return to the oven for another 5-10 minutes
- Remove from the oven and top with pomegranate arils and balsamic glaze (or pomegranate molasses) when ready to serve
- ENJOY!

We LOVED these at Thanksgiving this year! The combo of the pom seeds + balsalmic glaze mixed it up enough for us (we eat brussels often) that it felt fresh and delish! Yum thanks for sharing!
