How to Make Winter Veggies Under A Fluffy Cheddar Blanket

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss together 1 lb butternut squash (cubed), 1 lb Brussels sprouts (halved), 1 lb carrots (chopped), 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  3. Divide the vegetables evenly between two rimmed baking sheets.
  4. Roast for 25 minutes, then check for sticking. If vegetables are sticking, sprinkle with 1-2 tbsp water.
  5. Roast for another 20 minutes, or until vegetables are tender and browned.
  6. While vegetables roast, prepare the cheddar biscuits (see separate recipe). Do not cut or bake the biscuits at this stage. Set aside.
  7. Once vegetables are roasted, transfer them to a 3-quart baking dish. Increase oven temperature to 450°F (230°C).
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water until smooth.
  9. In a saucepan, bring 1 cup vegetable broth and 1/2 cup dry white wine to a boil. Whisk in the cornstarch mixture.
  10. Boil for 1 minute, whisking constantly, until thickened.
  11. Pour the broth mixture over the roasted vegetables, stirring gently to coat.
  12. Top with spoonfuls of the unbaked cheddar biscuit dough, distributing evenly.
  13. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through.
  14. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
