  • 2 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: pinch of cinnamon or smoked paprika

Instructions

  2. Place Brussels sprouts and butternut squash on the baking sheet.
  3. Drizzle with olive oil and maple syrup. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and optional spices.
  4. Toss to coat and spread vegetables in a single layer, cut-side down for Brussels sprouts.

  6. Top with chopped pecans or dried cranberries if using, and serve warm.
