Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse and dry the brussels sprouts. Trim the ends and cut them in half lengthwise.
Core the apple and dice it into small, bite-sized pieces.
Cut the pancetta into small cubes or strips.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the brussels sprouts with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the brussels sprouts in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Sprinkle the diced apple and pancetta evenly over the brussels sprouts.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the brussels sprouts are tender and caramelized and the pancetta is crisp.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer.
