Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Trim the base of the endives and slice them in half lengthwise. Gently rinse and pat dry.
Clean the cremini mushrooms with a damp cloth. If they are large, slice them in half or quarters; otherwise, leave them whole.
Peel the garlic cloves and slice them thinly.
On a baking sheet, arrange the endives cut-side up and scatter the mushrooms evenly around them.
Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the endives and mushrooms.
Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and sliced garlic over the vegetables. Lay the thyme sprigs on top.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the endives are golden brown and tender and the mushrooms are cooked through.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and drizzle the balsamic vinegar over the vegetables while still warm.
Serve immediately as a side dish or light appetizer. Enjoy!
