Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Honey and Pecans

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Cooking Time: 25–30 minutes

Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 1 lb (450 g) Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 1/4 tsp salt

• 1/4 tsp black pepper

• 2 tbsp Honey in the Hollow Bee Farm honey

• 1/4 cup pecans, chopped

• 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (optional)

• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

2. In a large bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

3. Arrange the Brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down. Roast in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, shaking the pan halfway through, until the Brussels sprouts are golden brown and tender.

4. In the last 5 minutes of roasting, heat the Honey in the Hollow Bee Farm honey in a small saucepan over low heat until it becomes runny (optional). Add the chopped pecans and stir to combine. Allow the pecans to lightly toast for 2–3 minutes, then remove from heat.

5. Once the Brussels sprouts are roasted, remove them from the oven and drizzle the Honey in the Hollow Bee Farm honey-pecan mixture over the top. Toss gently to coat the sprouts evenly. If desired, drizzle with balsamic vinegar for an extra touch of flavor. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
