Honey-Butter Roasted Beets

• 2 lbs beets, peeled and sliced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons honey, mild
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Slice green tops from beets (and reserve for another use if desired). Carefully peel rough outside layer from beets. Slice beets to 1/4-inch thickness (note that some larger beets may require slicing into quarters). Then arrange in a single layer on a large baking sheet with raised sides.
3. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt honey and butter together (microwave for 30-40 seconds until smooth). Whisk in the salt and vanilla.
4. Drizzle honey-butter mixture over beet slices and toss with hands or a rubber spatula until thoroughly coated. Then rearrange into a single layer.
5. Roast for 20 minutes, remove from oven, toss with a rubber spatula, redistribute in the pan and return to toast another 10-15 minutes.
6. Remove from oven, allow to cool for 5 minutes and serve.
