Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Peel and cube the butternut squash into 1-inch pieces. Trim the Brussels sprouts and slice them in half lengthwise. Peel and slice the carrots and parsnips into long, uniform sticks. Peel and cube the beets into 1-inch pieces. Cut the red onion into thick wedges.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, maple syrup, chopped fresh rosemary, thyme leaves, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Divide the vegetables evenly between the two baking sheets. Drizzle the olive oil mixture evenly over the vegetables and toss them to coat thoroughly. Ensure the vegetables are spread out in a single layer for even roasting.
Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and roast for 35-45 minutes, flipping the vegetables halfway through the cooking time. Check for doneness by piercing them with a fork—vegetables should be tender and slightly caramelized.
Remove from the oven, drizzle with a splash of fresh lemon juice, and garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your Winter Vegetable Plate!
