Ingredients
- 4 medium parsnips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.25 cups sliced almonds
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Peel the parsnips and cut them into evenly sized sticks, approximately 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick.
In a large bowl, toss the parsnip sticks with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Spread the parsnips out in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast the parsnips in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven and drizzle them with honey.
Scatter the sliced almonds over the parsnips and return the baking sheet to the oven.
Continue roasting for an additional 10 minutes, or until the parsnips are tender and golden brown and the almonds are lightly toasted.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the roasted parsnips with fresh parsley for garnish.
Transfer the parsnips with almonds to a serving dish and serve warm.
