You’ve Got to Try These Bacon-Wrapped Brussels Sprouts
Not a fan of Brussels sprouts? Prepare to change your mind!
I have one word: BACON.
These bacon-wrapped Brussels sprouts are super easy to make and look kind of fancy when served as a party appetizer or snack. Plus, they score bonus points for being healthy!
Here are a couple of recipe tips to keep in mind when making these bacon-wrapped brussels sprouts:
- Get your bacon a little crispier by placing it under the broiler on high for 3 minutes after baking time.
- If you use toothpicks, soak them in water first to keep them from darkening or burning.

This is such a delicious and savory treat. I ate a bunch of them before sharing them with the kids. 😉 What a perfect match for bacon and Brussels sprout lovers like me!
I love that this recipe makes 16, it’s the perfect keto side or appetizer for a family of 4-5.

These were amazing. Unlike the larger Brussels sprouts better than the smaller ones. Great idea. Thanks
Hi Susan! I’m so glad you enjoyed it❤ Thanks for giving us feedback.
Hello do you have adaptation for using an air fryer? Time and temp?
I would try around 325 degrees for 15 minutes and check if done. If using toothpicks, soak them in water first, so less likely to burn. 👍
