Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Turnips
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and trim the turnips, then cut them into 1-inch wedges for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, thyme leaves, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the turnip wedges to the bowl and toss to coat them evenly with the balsamic mixture.
Spread the turnip wedges out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping for even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 45-50 minutes, tossing the turnips halfway through to ensure even caramelization.
Once the turnips are tender and golden brown, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Transfer the roasted turnips to a serving dish and garnish with additional fresh thyme leaves if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
