Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) or 180°C (350°F) for fan ovens. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Peel the parsnips and cut them into evenly sized batons or wedges to ensure they cook evenly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the parsnip pieces to the bowl and toss thoroughly to coat them evenly with the honey-mustard mixture.
Spread the coated parsnips out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded to allow for proper roasting.
Sprinkle the fresh thyme leaves over the parsnips for added flavor and aroma.
Place the tray in the preheated oven and roast for 30-35 minutes, turning the parsnips halfway through cooking to ensure even caramelization.
Remove the parsnips from the oven once they are golden brown and tender. Transfer them to a serving dish and drizzle with any leftover glaze from the pan, if desired.
Serve immediately as a side dish and enjoy!
