Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium rutabagas (about 1 lb total), peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the diced rutabaga with olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the coated rutabaga on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and fork-tender.
- While the rutabaga roasts, melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously until it turns golden brown (about 5-7 minutes) and smells nutty.
- Remove from heat and stir in maple syrup until combined.
- Once the rutabagas are done roasting, drizzle them with the maple brown butter mixture, tossing gently to coat before serving warm.
