Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Cinnamon apple & pear

Recently I've discovered that I actually like Brussels sprouts. I just realized roasting them is the way to go! If you are looking or a good side dish to bring to a holiday party or potluck THIS IS IT!! It's healthy but has a little cinnamon & sweet too. My best friend Kelly and I collaborated together on this recipe. I hope you like it as much as we did! 



Brussels Sprouts 
1 apple
1 pear
1 T melted butter
Dash or cinnamon 
2-3 T olive oil. (Depending on the amount of Brussels sprouts you use, enough to toss and cover each) 
Dash or S&P 
2 T apple cider vinegar
Golden raisins or dried cranberries (optional) 
Sliced toasted almonds (optional) 

Preheat oven to 400
Cut Brussels sprouts in half and toss in a bowl with olive oil
spread out on cookie sheet lied with parchment paper and sprinkle with S&P 
Bake in oven 15-20 minutes. Should turn golden brown, but don't burn! Remove from oven.
Chop up fruit and toss in bowl with butter and cinnamon
Add fruit to cookie sheet with Brussels sprouts. 
Drizzle apple cider vinegar over and bake for 10 more minutes. 
Serve warm! If you choose to add raisins or craisins and almonds. Mix it in now. (Kelly highly recommends this) 

ENJOY! 
NOTE: Tastes great paired with the brown sugar, balsamic pulled pork :)
