Roasted Parsnips with Maple Syrup
To give this dish a creamier texture and richer flavor, use European-style butter (such as Plugrá) because it has a lower moisture content than regular butter. If you can’t find any, use regular butter.
Ingredients

Directions
- Heat oven to 350°F. In a large, shallow baking dish, toss parsnips with butter and syrup. Season with salt.

- Roast 45 minutes, basting occasionally with reserved butter, until caramelized. Shake baking sheet occasionally to prevent sticking.
