Ingredients 1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves 14 slices bacon, halved crosswise and lengthwise (about 1 pound) ¼ cup grainy Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons maple syrup 1 teaspoon apple-cider vinegar Directions Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season brussels sprouts with salt and pepper; sprinkle with thyme. Wrap each sprout with a piece of bacon; place seam-side down on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, flipping halfway through, until bacon is crisp and sprouts are browning in places, about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together mustard, maple syrup, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Let sprouts cool 10 minutes before serving with dipping sauce. Bryan Gardner Cook's Notes Skip the thick-cut bacon here; if it’s sliced on the thinner side, it makes for easier wrapping and crispier sprouts. Rate it Print
