Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Brussels sprouts
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup

• 2 cloves Minced garlic
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the Brussels sprouts thoroughly and trim the stem ends. Slice each sprout in half, or quarters if they are particularly large.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

Transfer the Brussels sprouts to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

Step 7

Serve warm as a delicious and healthy side dish. Enjoy!
