Tips:

Choose firm and brightly colored Brussels sprouts. Avoid any with yellow or wilted leaves.
Trim the Brussels sprouts by removing the tough outer leaves and slicing off the stem end.
To ensure even cooking, halve or quarter larger Brussels sprouts.
Use a combination of olive oil and butter for roasting. This will help to prevent the Brussels sprouts from drying out.
Season the Brussels sprouts generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Roast the Brussels sprouts at a high temperature (400°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
Add the bacon and maple syrup to the Brussels sprouts during the last 5 minutes of roasting. This will allow the bacon to crisp up and the maple syrup to caramelize.
Serve the Brussels sprouts immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or thyme.

Conclusion:

Roasted Brussels sprouts with bacon and maple syrup is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. The Brussels sprouts are roasted until tender and slightly charred, and the bacon and maple syrup add a sweet and savory flavor. This dish is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. It is also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables!
