- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400ยฐF (200ยฐC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

- Add the Bacon: Once the Brussels sprouts are roasted, remove them from the oven and stir in the crispy bacon.
- Serve: Serve your Honey-Glazed Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Bacon hot, garnished with a drizzle of honey if desired. Enjoy the perfect balance of sweet and savory!
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese before serving.
- Feel free to swap the honey with maple syrup for a different sweet twist.
- Ensure you toss the Brussels sprouts halfway through roasting to get an even crispiness.
