Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Place all the vegetables on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat all the vegetables and sprinkle with salt. Alternatively at this point you can place the vegetables in a large zipper bag and refrigerate overnight.

Roast for 45-50 minutes, stirring halfway through, or until tender and golden.

Remove the vegetables from the oven, drizzle with maple syrup and roast an additional 5 minutes or until caramelized and golden.

Serve with additional salt to taste.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Cut Vegetables Uniformly 🔪
Dice all vegetables into similar-sized pieces (roughly ¾-inch cubes) to ensure even cooking and consistent caramelization throughout the roasting process.
Pat Dry Before Roasting 💧
Thoroughly dry your vegetables with paper towels after washing to remove excess moisture, allowing them to caramelize properly rather than steam.
Add Maple Syrup Strategically ⏰
Toss vegetables with maple syrup in the final 10-15 minutes of roasting to prevent burning while still achieving a glossy, candied exterior with deep caramelization.
Use High Heat and Space Correctly 🍽️
Roast at 425°F on a single layer with proper spacing between pieces; overcrowding causes steaming instead of roasting, resulting in less flavorful vegetables.
Season in Layers 🧂
Apply kosher salt at the beginning for flavor development and again after roasting to maintain a crispy, seasoned exterior that won't dissolve into the vegetables.
