I'm not going to lie—when I was younger, Brussels sprouts were definitely not on my holiday menu wish list. But life has a funny way of changing perspectives, and recently, I found myself rethinking my stance on these tiny green powerhouses. While traveling out of town, I stumbled upon a dish at a local restaurant that combined Brussels sprouts with bacon and cranberries. It was love at first bite.
Fast forward to Christmas Eve, and I knew I had to recreate something similar at home. After scrolling through Pinterest for some inspiration, I jotted down a rough idea of what I wanted. Then, as I rummaged through my pantry, the maple syrup practically shouted at me from the shelf. It was meant to be!
So here we are—a deliciously caramelized, sweet-and-savory side dish that has quickly become one of my favorites. The best part? It’s surprisingly easy to make. No fancy techniques required—just a little patience and some key ingredients.
If you're curious, here’s how I made it:
**Maple Glazed Brussels Sprouts**
*//Ingredients:*
- 1 bag of Brussels sprouts
- 1/2 pound of bacon
- 1/2 cup of dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts (optional, but highly recommended!)
- 1 clove of minced garlic
- 3 tablespoons of pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard
- A dash of salt and pepper
*//Process:*
First, cut the Brussels sprouts into quarters and rinse them thoroughly. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, olive oil, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until everything is well-combined. Toss the Brussels sprouts in this mixture so they’re evenly coated.
Next, chop the bacon into small pieces and fry it in a medium-sized skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and set it aside, but keep the rendered fat in the skillet. Now, add the Brussels sprouts to the skillet and cook them for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to caramelize.
Once the sprouts are golden brown, throw in the minced garlic, cooked bacon, cranberries, and chopped walnuts. Stir everything together and let it cook for another 5 minutes, making sure to toss it around occasionally so nothing burns. Finally, take the pan off the heat and sprinkle some crumbled blue cheese on top for an extra burst of flavor.
Serve warm, and get ready for compliments because this dish is absolutely crowd-pleasing.
As for me, I’m still beaming over how perfectly my Christmas dinner came together—not just the Brussels sprouts, but the entire spread. Even the turkey, which turned out better than expected, became the centerpiece of our festive photo op. Okay, maybe it lacked the traditional trimmings, but who needs gravy when you’ve got this maple-glazed masterpiece?
