Ingredients
- 500 grams Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Gruyère cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Trim the ends off the Brussels sprouts and remove any yellowing outer leaves. Slice each sprout in half.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the Brussels sprouts for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Drain and set aside.
In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then remove from heat.
Arrange the blanched Brussels sprouts in an even layer in a greased baking dish.
Pour the cream mixture evenly over the Brussels sprouts.
Top the dish with shredded Gruyère cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the olive oil. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbling.
Let the gratin rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your creamy, cheesy Brussels sprouts gratin!
