Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1.5 lbs Brussels sprouts trimmed and halved
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Trim the ends and slice the Brussels sprouts in half.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts, olive oil, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on a sheet pan.
  5. Place the pan in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  6. Once tender and crispy, remove from the oven and drizzle with balsamic vinegar.
  7. If using, sprinkle the chopped pecans and grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
  8. Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy warm.

Notes

This dish pairs beautifully with herb-roasted turkey or honey-glazed ham. For extra crispiness, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes.
