COOK TIME: 35-40 MINUTES
MAKES: 24 BRUSSELS SPROUTS
1 T maple syrup

2. Arrange bacon slices on prepared baking sheet. Brush top of each slice with maple syrup, flip over, and brush other side. Bake for about 20 minutes. Bacon should be slightly undercooked so it’s still pliable enough to wrap around Brussels sprouts.
3. Line a plate with paper towels; transfer bacon to plate to drain and cool.
4. Cut each slice of bacon into thirds, and wrap a Brussels sprout half in bacon, securing at the top with a toothpick. Place back on baking sheet.
5. When all the Brussels sprouts are wrapped, bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until sprouts are tender and bacon is crisp.
