Maple Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Vegetables
Ingredients
  • 1 pound sweet potatoes, cut into long, thin rectangles
  • 1 large carrot, cut into long, thin rectangles
  • 1 parsnip, cut into long, thin rectangles
  • extra-virgin olive oil, or as needed
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup, or to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius, if you prefer metric).
2
Arrange the sliced sweet potatoes, carrots, and parsnips in a single layer on a baking sheet designed for roasting vegetables; lightly anoint with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.
3
Place the prepared vegetables in a preheated oven and roast until they are tender, but still retain some firmness, approximately 30 minutes.
4
Once the vegetables have reached this stage, sprinkle some fresh thyme sprigs over them and drizzle with a sweet, syrupy liquid made from maple syrup.
5
Return the vegetables to the oven and continue baking until they are fully tender, adding an additional 15 minutes to the cooking time.
