Slow Cooker Brussel Sprouts with Sweet Honey Dijon
The sweet Honey Dijon sauce poured over crock pot brussels sprouts, combined with tasty bites of dried cranberries, make a festive and delicious way to serve a vegetable side dish for Thanksgiving, Christmas and any holiday season. A slow cooker is so easy to set and forget!
To prep, cut brussels sprouts in half and place in slow cooker.
Take out a mixing bowl and combine Honey Dijon Mustard, Minced Garlic, Salt and Pepper, and honey. Whisk together until combined.
Pour honey mixture in the slow cooker right over Brussels sprouts, add 1/2 cup of dried cranberries, and use a spatula to make sure vegetables are stirred and covered.
Season entire dish generously with salt and black pepper.
Slice 6 tablespoons of butter into pats and place around the Brussels Sprouts.
Add lid onto crock pot.
Cook High 1-2 hours or Low 3-4 hours until desired texture (from super soft to slightly firm).

Notes
NOTE: Depending on the size of your brussels sprouts, it could change the time needed in crock pot. I would test at the 2 hour mark and move to warm if Brussel sprouts are cooked through and still slightly crispy.
As the recipe states, add 1-2 pounds of Brussels Sprouts depending on need. This recipe sauce goes up to 2 pounds so if you only use 1 pound, you will have left over Honey Dijon Sauce in cooker (as shown in images).
