Equipment

  • baking dish

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large sweet potato or 2 smaller ones
  • 1 pound carrots peeled
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 teaspoon rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400F.
  • Cut sweet potatoes and carrots into roughly ¾-inch to 1-inch pieces. Place in a large baking dish.
  • Add minced garlic, olive oil, maple syrup, thyme, rosemary, cinnamon, and salt to the baking dish. Toss everything together so that the veggies are well-coated in the oil, syrup, and spices.
  • Place the baking dish in the oven for 35-40 minutes, tossing them halfway through (around the 20 minute mark). The veggies should be lightly browned, caramelized, and easily pierced with a fork - continue cooking longer, if needed.
  • Remove from oven + serve hot!

Notes

Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days. They can be reheated in the microwave or oven. Ingredient swaps: You could use Japanese sweet potatoes or butternut squash as alternatives.
