House Favorite Roasted Brussels Sprouts

• one 12 oz. package raw brussels sprouts, halved12 oz
• olive oil↗2 tablespoon
• a pinch of salt and pepper
• a handful of walnuts
• a handful of dried cranberries
• Dijon mustard↗1 teaspoon
• maple syrup↗2 tablespoon
• extra olive oil, more salt and pepper, maybe some red pepper flakes if you want to spice things up↗

Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place brussels sprouts cut-side down directly on a baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Roast brussels sprouts for 15-20 minutes, until cut sides are very brown and some of the leaves are crispy. Add walnuts, mustard, and maple; return to oven for 5-10 minutes to get the walnuts toasted. (You can choose to either add the sauce now, or when the pan comes out of the oven in step 3. If you add it now, it gets kind of baked into the brussels, but if you add it when they’re done baking, it’ll be a little more saucy. I like it both ways. Your choice!)

3. 3

   Remove from oven. Toss with cranberries directly on the baking sheet. Season and serve immediately. Yumo!
