Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Brussels sprouts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Wash the Brussels sprouts thoroughly and trim the stem ends. Slice each sprout in half, or quarters if they are particularly large.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the prepared Brussels sprouts to the slow cooker. Pour the mustard mixture over the sprouts and toss them gently to ensure they are evenly coated.
Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on 'Low' setting for 3 hours, or until the Brussels sprouts are tender and infused with the tangy mustard flavor.
Once cooked, stir the Brussels sprouts gently to redistribute the sauce. Optional: Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the top and allow it to melt before serving.
Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve warm as a delicious and healthy side dish. Enjoy!
