Ingredients

• 4 medium-sized beets
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1.5 tablespoons honey
• 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 0.5 teaspoons fresh thyme
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash the beets thoroughly, leaving the skins on. Trim off the greens, leaving about 1 inch of the stems attached.

Step 3

Wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on a baking sheet.

Step 4

Roast the beets in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes or until a fork easily pierces through them.

Step 5

While the beets are roasting, prepare the glaze: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 6

Stir in the honey, red wine vinegar, orange zest, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture simmer gently for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

Once the beets are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool until they are safe to handle.

Step 8

Peel the beets by rubbing off the skins with a paper towel or your hands (wear gloves to prevent staining). Slice the beets into wedges or rounds.

Step 9

Place the sliced beets in a serving dish and pour the glaze over them. Toss gently to coat the beets evenly in the glaze.

Step 10

Serve warm as a flavorful side dish. Enjoy!
