Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup and Dijon mustard until smooth and well combined.
Step 3
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Pat them dry with a paper towel to help the glaze adhere better.
Step 4
Brush the maple mustard glaze generously over the top of each salmon fillet, ensuring an even coating.
Step 5
Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Step 6
Optional: For a caramelized finish, turn the oven to broil for the last 2 minutes of cooking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Step 7
Remove the salmon from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving. Pair with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad for a balanced meal.
