Roasted Parsnips and Apples

This quick and easy side dish has just the right amount of sweet and savouriness.

2 lbs parsnips, peeled and cut into ½” slices
2 apples, such as Gala or Pink Lady, cored and diced large
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 Tbsp. orange zest, finely grated
1 Tbsp. orange juice, freshly squeezed
¼ tsp. ground cinnamon
coarse sea salt

Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C/210°C fan, Gas Mark 8).

On a rimmed baking sheet, combine parsnips and apples. Dot with butter.

Roast until parsnips and apples are tender and golden, about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
