Ingredients
- 3 medium parsnips
- 2 large sweet potatoes
- 2 medium apples (preferably firm varieties like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
Peel the parsnips and sweet potatoes. Slice the parsnips into sticks approximately 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick. Chop the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes.
Step 3
Core and slice the apples into wedges (about 8 per apple), leaving the skin on for texture and flavor. Toss them in a small bowl with the lemon juice to prevent browning.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the parsnips, sweet potatoes, and apples. Drizzle with olive oil and honey, then sprinkle with fresh rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Toss until all pieces are evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the pieces don’t overlap for better roasting.
Step 6
Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 25 minutes. After this, flip the pieces to promote even caramelization and roast for an additional 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
Step 7
Remove from the oven, taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary. Transfer to a serving dish and serve warm as a side dish or a standalone meal.
