Ingredients
- 250 g sprouts halved
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- 50 g pecan nuts
- 4 tablespoons maple syrup
- 25 g dried cranberries
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 220C / 200C fan / gas mark 7 / 425F.
- Halve your sprouts and place in a roasting tray. Drizzle over 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle over a little salt and pepper. Toss the sprouts in the oil and then turn them all so they are cut side up.
- Roast the sprouts in your preheated oven for 10 minutes.
- Remove the sprouts from the oven. Sprinkle over the pecan nuts and drizzle over the maple syrup and toss everything in the maple syrup. Roast for 5 more minutes.
- Remove from the oven and add the cranberries. Toss everything together and then tip out onto a serving dish immediately (If you don’t the pecans will weld themselves to the roasting tray – you have been warned!)
- Serve as a side dish to a roast dinner.
