Brussel Sprout & Maple Bacon Gratin

This gratin takes Brussels sprouts to the next level with smoky maple-glazed bacon, a creamy cheese sauce, and a golden, crunchy breadcrumb topping. It’s the kind of dish that turns simple ingredients into something indulgent and crowd-pleasing — perfect as a festive side or a comforting winter bake. Boxing Day tip: throw in leftover cheeseboard bits and stray veg to clear the fridge.
