Recipe type: Vegetarian
Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 1lb fresh brussels sprouts, halved, outer leaves and bottom hard stem removed
  • ¼cup chopped walnuts
  • ¼cup maple syrup
  • 3tbsp olive oil (plus more for greasing pan)
  • ¼tsp garlic powder
  • ¼tsp onion powder
  • salt
  • pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven 400ºF and grease a baking sheet with olive oil (can also line with foil to make clean up easier)
  2. In a large bowl, toss the brussels with 3tbsp olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, ½tsp kosher salt and some fresh cracked black pepper. Place cut side up on prepared baking sheet and roast for 5 to 7 minutes, or until brussels begin to soften ever so slightly. (Any leaves that fall off while tossing should be left in bowl to roast the 2nd time in the oven. They will burn if you place them in oven for both roastings.)
  3. While brussels are roasting place maple syrup, walnuts, ½tsp salt and some pepper in the same bowl that brussels were tossed in. Give it a good stir.
  4. Take brussels out of oven and carefully place back in bowl with syrup/nut mixture. Toss gently.
  5. Place brussels (nuts and all) back on baking sheet, cut side up, and roast for another 5 to 7 minutes or until edges begin to brown. If you want them extra crisping turn on the broiler but be careful not to burn the nuts. Serve warm or at room temperature.
