Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized fresh beets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Thoroughly wash and scrub the beets to remove any dirt. Trim off the greens and root ends but leave the skins on.
Cut the beets into equal-sized wedges, approximately 1-inch thick, to ensure even cooking.
Place the beet wedges into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper.
Toss the beets in the bowl until they are evenly coated with the olive oil and seasoning.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Spread the seasoned beet wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping.
Roast in the preheated oven for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until the beets are tender when pierced with a fork and have a caramelized edge.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your roasted beets as a delicious side dish or salad topping.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
