Sweet and savory parsnips, slow-cooked until tender and caramelized with a honey glaze. Perfect as a side dish for any roast or vegetarian meal.
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, toss the parsnips with olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Ensure the parsnips are evenly coated.
Transfer the parsnips to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange them in a single layer if possible.
Add the thyme sprigs to the baking dish, distributing them amongst the parsnips.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
Bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the parsnips are tender and lightly caramelized. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Remove the thyme sprigs before serving.

For extra flavor, add a clove of minced garlic to the parsnips before baking.
If the parsnips start to brown too quickly, cover them with foil again for the last few minutes of baking.
Store leftover parsnips in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
