Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place Brussels sprouts in a single layer in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and maple syrup; toss to coat. Sprinkle with bacon; season with salt and black pepper.
- Roast in the preheated oven until bacon is crispy and Brussels sprouts are caramelized, 45 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Tips:
- Choose small and uniform Brussels sprouts: Smaller sprouts cook more evenly than larger ones, and uniform size ensures they cook at the same rate.
- Trim the sprouts: Remove any yellow or wilted leaves and cut off the stem end.
- Blanch the sprouts (optional): Blanching helps remove the bitterness of the sprouts and speeds up the cooking process. To blanch, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add the sprouts, and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green. Immediately transfer the sprouts to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Use good quality bacon: Thick-cut bacon adds more flavor and texture to the dish.
- Cook the bacon until crispy: Crispy bacon adds a nice contrast to the tender sprouts.
- Use pure maple syrup: Pure maple syrup has a richer flavor than pancake syrup.
- Add some spices: Spices like garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper add extra flavor to the dish.
- Roast the sprouts until tender: Roasting brings out the sweetness of the sprouts and caramelizes the edges.
