500 g butternut squash, peeled, 1 lb

1 medium red onion, cut into 8 wedges
1 red bell pepper, cut into 2" (5 cm) pieces
6 carrots, cut into 2" (5 cm) pieces
1 fennel bulb, cut into 8 wedges
1 whole garlic bulb, peeled, separated into cloves
30 mL Western Family extra virgin olive oil 2 tbsp

60 mL apple cider or apple juice ¼ cup
60 mL water or vegetable broth ¼ cup
15 mL unsalted butter 1 tbsp
30 mL maple syrup 2 tbsp

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Place vegetables on baking sheet, spread out evenly and tuck in the rosemary sprigs if using. Roast vegetables until tender, for 45 to 60 minutes, tossing occasionally.

Line a large rimmed baking sheet with tinfoil or parchment paper.

Combine prepared vegetables, oil, salt and pepper to taste in a large bowl, toss to coat.

Meanwhile make the glaze: combine all ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, cook about 10 minutes or until reduced by half.

Transfer cooked vegetables to a serving plate and toss with glaze.
