Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium parsnips
- 4 medium carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the parsnips and carrots, then cut them into evenly sized sticks, approximately 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, melted butter, thyme leaves, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
Add the parsnip and carrot sticks to the bowl, tossing them in the honey mixture until well coated.
Spread the vegetables in a single layer onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and caramelized, flipping them halfway through to ensure even browning.
Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with additional thyme leaves, if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your honey-glazed parsnips and carrots!
