Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized beets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons honey
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2
Rinse the beets thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Step 3
Peel the beets using a vegetable peeler and cut them into evenly sized wedges, about 1 inch thick.
Step 4
Place the beet wedges in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
Step 5
Transfer the beets to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread them out into a single layer to ensure even roasting.
Step 6
Nestle the fresh rosemary sprigs among the beet wedges to infuse the beets with their aroma.
Step 7
Roast in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, flipping the beets halfway through cooking to ensure even caramelization.
Step 8
While the beets are roasting, prepare the honey glaze by warming the honey slightly in a microwave or small saucepan to make it easier to drizzle.
Step 9
Remove the beets from the oven after 40 minutes and drizzle the honey over them. Toss gently with a spatula to coat the beets in the glaze.
Step 10
Return the glazed beets to the oven and roast for an additional 10-15 minutes, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
Step 11
Remove the beets from the oven and carefully discard the rosemary sprigs. Let the dish cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 12
Serve warm or at room temperature as a side dish or salad topping. Enjoy!
