How to Make Parsnips Candied

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the peeled and thinly sliced parsnips with the melted butter, ensuring all slices are coated.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, maple syrup, orange juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and salt.
  4. Pour the brown sugar mixture over the parsnips and toss gently to coat evenly.
  5. Spread the parsnips in a single layer in a large baking dish.
  6. Bake for 45-65 minutes, or until the parsnips are tender and caramelized, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking and browning.
  7. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
