- 1 lb brussels sprouts (fresh, rinsed, ends trimmed, rough outer leaves of larger sprouts removed)
- ¼ cup butter (high quality, unsalted)
- 2 T brown sugar
- ¼ cup apple cider
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Place butter, brown sugar, and salt in a cast iron skillet. Cook over high heat until bubbling and thickening.
Add apple cider and then keep stirring and cooking until the liquid is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
Toss brussels sprouts in the glaze until well-coated.
Roast for 25 minutes, tossing regularly, until sprouts are crispy and caramelized, whilst cooked through.
