Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 10 ounces carrots, peeled and cut into ½ inch thick rounds on the bias (about 3 medium carrots)
  • 10 ounces parsnips, peeled and cut into ½ inch thick rounds on the bias (about 3 medium parsnips)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 ½ tablespoons honey
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Peel and cut the carrots and parsnips into ½ inch thick diagonally cut rounds. Transfer the cut veggies into a large bowl.
  • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, olive oil, honey, salt, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.
  • Pour the honey mixture over the carrots and parsnips. Use clean hands or a large spoon to stir the carrots and parsnips until evenly coated.

  • Remove the pan from the oven and serve them warm.
