How to Make Maple Roasted Root Vegetables

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and chop 1 lb of root vegetables (such as carrots, beets, parsnips, sweet potatoes) into roughly 1-inch pieces.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, and 2 minced garlic cloves.
  4. Add the chopped vegetables to the bowl and toss gently to coat evenly with the maple-garlic oil.
  5. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  6. Spread the vegetables in a single layer on one or two large baking sheets lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  7. Roast for 50-60 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and caramelized, stirring halfway through.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
