A delightful side dish featuring crispy roasted carrots and Brussels sprouts glazed with pure maple syrup for a perfect balance of sweet and savory.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups baby carrots (or any carrot variety)
- 2 cups Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- Sea salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Trim and halve the Brussels sprouts and peel and slice the carrots into even pieces.
