Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Brussels sprouts, trimmed Ends trimmed, yellow leaves removed
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1 ½ pounds butternut squash peeled, seeded, and cubed into 1-inch pieces (about 4 cups)
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 cups pecan halves
  • 1 cup dried cranberries
  • 2-4 tablespoons maple syrup optional, for additional sweetness

Equipment

  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Mixing Bowl
  • foil

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a foil-lined baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Trim the ends of Brussels sprouts, remove yellow leaves, and slice each in half. In a medium bowl, toss Brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons olive oil and salt to taste. Place cut side down on the baking sheet.
  2. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. During the last 5-10 minutes, turn sprouts over for even browning. The cut sides should be nicely charred but not blackened.
  3. On a separate foil-lined baking sheet lightly greased with 1 tablespoon olive oil, combine cubed butternut squash with 1 tablespoon olive oil, maple syrup, and cinnamon; toss to coat evenly.
  4. Roast squash in the oven at 400°F for 20-25 minutes, turning once halfway through, until softened.
  5. Meanwhile, preheat another oven or use the same oven set at 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread pecans in a single layer. Toast for about 5 minutes, checking frequently to prevent burning. Pecans should darken in color.
  6. In a large bowl, combine the roasted Brussels sprouts, roasted butternut squash, toasted pecans, and dried cranberries. For added sweetness, drizzle 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, toss, then taste and add up to 2 more tablespoons if desired. Mix gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
