- 1 pound brussels sprouts
- 5 slices Wright's® Applewood Smoke Bacon
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon Redmond's Real Salt®
- 1/2 teaspoon McCormack's® Peppercorn Medley
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Directions:
Cut the bacon into 1/4 inch strips and cook them about half-way to done. Scoop out the pieces and set aside.
Place Brussels sprouts in a large mixing bowl. Add bacon. Drizzle with olive oil and maple syrup and then toss to coat. Season with salt and black pepper and toss again.
Spread on an aluminum pan and roast until bacon is crispy and Brussels sprouts are caramelized, approximately 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Myrtle's Note: Gosh, these were such a hit with guests of all ages. I followed the advice of one of the reviewers of the original recipe and partially cooked the bacon as I directed above. That worked well. So well that everyone wished I had doubled the recipe!
Yield: 4-6 servings
