These Brussels sprouts with bacon and maple will make a bad starter! DO NOT EAT! We agree that anything wrapped in bacon will be a winner. Yes, the sausages are good, but I like this version (semi) healthier. Happy holidays, you crazy people!

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 °F. Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the sprouts base and remove the first layer of leaves. Cut in half and reserve.
Coat the sprouts with the bacon pieces and poke with a toothpick. Place on the baking sheet.
Pour the maple syrup into a small bowl and using a brush, baste the bacon with the syrup.
Bake for about 1 hour or until bacon is crispy and Brussel sprouts are cooked. Drain the bites and place on a few sheets of paper towel. Let stand 2 minutes before serving!

Our sommeliers suggest

Tetramythos Kalavryta 2016

Ah, sunshine in a bottle. and organic too. It comes from a beautiful country, Greece. The nose recalls small red berries, like fresh strawberry, with a light floral touch. An easy-drinking, fresh, digestible wine. Best enjoyed with your feet up on the ottoman or with family alongside these little Brussels sprouts! See the product

Miellat, 5%

Le Lion Bleu

A red ale brewed with buckwheat and blueberry honey, Miellat will echo the maple syrup in my Brussels sprouts with bacon and maple. Its nicely measured grain character holds up to the smoke of the bacon and the bitterness of the sprout, and the sweet-smoky flavour carries on without overpowering. Spear one with a toothpick, then go back for more. See the product
