How To Make Bacon Maple Syrup Brussel Sprouts
***For complete recipe instructions, see the recipe card below.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
- Mix Brussels sprouts, bacon, olive oil, and maple syrup in a bowl.
- Spread on the baking sheet and season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes and broil for 4 minutes before serving.
Crucial Recipe Tip
Make sure the Brussels sprouts are coated evenly in the olive oil and maple syrup and are spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. These two steps will help the Brussels sprouts caramelize while roasting and ensure they do not steam and get soggy.
Storage Tips
STORE: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
FREEZE: I do not recommend freezing this recipe. Once cooked, the Brussels sprouts do not freeze and reheat well.
Recipe FAQs
Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the mixture, set it in the refrigerator, and then bake it when ready to serve.
Why won’t my Brussels sprouts get crispy?
Roasting the Brussels sprouts cooks them but does not make them crispy. To get them crispy, broil them in the oven for three to four minutes.
