Brussels Sprouts With Toasted Hazelnut Butter Recipes

MAPLE-ROASTED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH TOASTED HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• To prepare the brussels sprouts, remove any yellow or brown outer leaves, cut off the stems and cut in half.
• In a large bowl, toss the brussels sprouts, olive oil, salt and pepper together. Once all of the brussels sprouts are coated in oil, spread them into a 9-by-13-inch (or larger) baking dish or sheet tray to roast. Note: You may want to line your sheet tray with foil for easy cleanup because the caramelizing process leaves a sticky residue.
• After 15 minutes, stir the brussels sprouts with a spatula or large spoon to even out the browning. After 30 minutes, stir in the maple syrup. (Steps 1 through 4 can be done a day in advance; store covered in the refrigerator. Continue with Steps 5 and 6 right before serving.)
• Continue to roast the brussels sprouts for about 15 more minutes, or until they are fork tender (about 45 minutes total roasting time).
• Toss the roasted brussels sprouts with the hazelnuts and devour!

• Put butter on a large rimmed baking sheet and roast until the butter is melted, browned and fragrant (4-5 minutes).
• Remove baking sheet from oven and toss Brussels sprouts and hazelnuts with the browned butter; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Return to oven and roast for 7 minutes; sprinkle with water, toss, and continue roasting until the sprouts are tender and lightly browned (another 7-9 minutes).

BRUSSELS SPROUTS IN HAZELNUT BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Spread out 1/2 cup plus 8 hazelnuts evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
• Toast hazelnuts in the preheated oven, stirring frequently, until the skins crack and they turn light brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Be careful not to burn them. Remove from oven and set aside until cool enough to handle. Roll cooled nuts between the palms of your hands to remove the skins.
• Set aside 8 hazelnuts and chop them coarsely for garnish. Transfer remaining hazelnuts to a food processor and finely chop.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook shallots until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Combine remaining 5 tablespoons butter, cooked shallots, and ground hazelnuts in a bowl and blend hazelnut butter well.
• Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add Brussels sprouts, cover, and steam until just tender, about 5 minutes.
• Melt hazelnut butter in a pot over low heat. Add Brussels sprouts and toss to coat with the nut butter. Serve sprinkled with reserved chopped hazelnuts.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH HAZELNUT & ORANGE BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix the butter, orange zest and hazelnuts in a small bowl with some freshly ground black pepper. (This can be done 2-3 days ahead and kept covered in the fridge.)
• Put the sprouts into a pan of boiling salted water, bring back to the boil, cover and cook for 4-5 minutes. Pour in the peas and cook for a further 2 minutes. The sprouts should be only just cooked. Drain.
• Put the sprouts and peas back into the pan and toss with the flavoured butter so it melts in. Season with salt and pepper and tip into a warmed serving dish.
