Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • pepper
  • 1/4-1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • olive oil for roasting
  • 1/3 cup Hot pepper jelly
  • Apple cider vinegar for thinning
  • red pepper flakes for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Begin by trimming the bottoms and halving the Brussels sprout. Remove any outer leaves that are loose.
  • Toss the Brussels sprouts with a good drizzle of olive oil, the salt and pepper and garlic powder.
  • Roast the Brussels sprouts on a sheet pan for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  • Meanwhile in a microwave safe bowl or a small sauce pan on the stove, add the hot pepper jelly and slowly melt it down until it’s a syrup-like consistency. In the microwave it will be about 15-20 seconds.
    TIP: I like to add a splash of apple cider vinegar to the jelly to help thin it out and add a tangy flavor to the sauce. This is optional though!
  • When the Brussels sprouts come out of the oven, drizzle the melted jelly over the sprouts and toss gently to combine.
  • Roast for another 5 to 8 minutes to help the glaze stick.
    Sprinkle with red pepper flakes if using and taste for any additional salt.
    Serve immediately and enjoy!
