Maple Glazed Squash And Parsnips Recipes

MAPLE GLAZED SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, add all of the ingredients and toss well to combine and coat.
• Pour ingredients onto prepared baking sheet. Spread squash out so that the pieces are not touching.
• Place in the oven and bake for 25 minutes.
• Remove from oven, use tongs to carefully turn over each piece of squash. Return to oven and bake for another 15 minutes.
• Transfer roasted squash to a serving dish and drizzle with more maple syrup. (Optional) Serve immediately.

MAPLE-ROASTED SQUASH WITH SAGE AND LIME FOR TWO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. If you like, line a rimmed baking pan with parchment paper or foil. (It's not necessary but will prove helpful when cleaning up.)
• In a small pot over medium-high heat, combine maple syrup and cayenne in a small pot. Bring to a simmer and let cook until it reduces by a third, 1 to 3 minutes. Add butter and let it melt. Turn off heat and mix in salt, pepper and coriander.
• Spread the squash out on the pan and spoon maple mixture over the pieces, turning them to coat. Roast until the pieces begin to soften, 15 minutes. Turn the squash pieces over and roast until glazed and tender, 10 to 20 minutes more. Drizzle lime juice and scatter sage leaves over the top for serving.

MAPLE-GLAZED PARSNIPS

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup water, the parsnips, cranberries, maple syrup, 1 tablespoon olive oil, the coriander, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low, cover and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Uncover and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon water and the lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until glazed, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley; season with salt.

MAPLE-GLAZED PARSNIPS AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with rack in lower third. Place parsnips, carrots, bacon, and thyme in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with syrup; season with salt and pepper. Toss well to combine. Bake until bottoms of vegetables begin to caramelize and turn dark brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven, and toss vegetables carefully. Return to oven, and bake until all sides are well browned, about 25 minutes more. Discard bacon and thyme. Serve immediately.
