Ingredients

1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise 

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 

2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves 

14 slices bacon, halved crosswise and lengthwise (about 1 pound) 

1/4 cup grainy Dijon mustard 

2 tablespoons maple syrup 

1 teaspoon apple-cider vinegar 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Season brussels sprouts with salt and pepper; sprinkle with thyme. Wrap each sprout with a piece of bacon; place seam-side down on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet.

Bake, flipping halfway through, until bacon is crisp and sprouts are browning in places, about 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together mustard, maple syrup, vinegar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Let sprouts cool 10 minutes before serving with dipping sauce.
