Crispy Brussel Sprouts Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Brussels Sprouts

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Cut them in half lengthwise.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon

   In a skillet over medium heat, cook the Nueske’s bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and crumble it into small pieces. Reserve the bacon fat in the skillet.

3. 3

   Season and Roast

   In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the reserved bacon fat for extra flavor. Spread the Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet in a single layer.

4. 4

   Bake

   Roast the Brussels sprouts in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden brown, tossing halfway through for even cooking.

5. 5

   Serve

   Once roasted, remove the Brussels sprouts from the oven and mix in the crumbled bacon. Drizzle apple butter over the top before serving.
