Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Cut them in half if they are large, so all pieces are about the same size for even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, olive oil, salt, black pepper, thyme sprigs, and minced garlic. Toss until the potatoes are well coated.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, cut side down for optimal crispiness.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are golden brown and tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar and honey until well mixed.
Once the potatoes are done roasting, remove them from the oven. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the hot potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly.
Transfer the potatoes to a serving dish and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
