1
Prepare the Brussels Sprouts
Trim the ends of the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellow or damaged outer leaves. Cut each sprout in half lengthwise.
2
Cook the Bacon
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Once cooked, remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain excess fat. Reserve about 1 tablespoon of the bacon grease in the skillet.

3
Sauté Brussels Sprouts
In the same skillet with the reserved bacon grease, add the halved Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Sauté over medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the Brussels sprouts are tender and caramelized.
4
Add Maple Syrup
Once the Brussels sprouts are cooked, drizzle the maple syrup over them and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the maple syrup is heated through and slightly caramelized.
5
Combine with Bacon
Crumble the cooked bacon into the skillet with the Brussels sprouts. Toss everything together to ensure the flavors are well combined.

6
Plate and Serve
Transfer the maple bacon Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and enjoy warm as a delicious side dish.
