Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet potato ((or 2 smaller ones))
  • 1 pound carrots, peeled
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Salt, to taste

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400F.

  2. 2

    Cut sweet potatoes and carrots into roughly 3/4-inch to 1-inch pieces. Place in a large baking dish.

  3. 3

    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. The veggies should be lightly browned and caramelized and easily pierced with a fork.
