- Ground Cinnamon – a warm, woody spice that kicks butternut squash right into autumn!

- Dried Rosemary – is very pungent and woodsy with a lemony pine flavor that pairs well with roasted vegetables.
- Garlic Powder – a pantry essential that is mild and sweeter than its aggressive and peppery fresh counterpart.
- Salt & Pepper – to taste.

How To Keep Roasted Vegetables From Getting Soggy
It happens, even to the best of us! You have a fantastic roasted fall vegetable recipe for golden crispy roasted vegetables, and you end up with a soggy mess! Here are tips for perfectly roasted fall vegetables, tender on the inside and crispy on the outside!
- Size does matter! Fall veggies like roasted Brussels sprouts take less time than large, dense root vegetables. Cube vegetables uniform in size to cook evenly.
- Too much, Too little, too late? Use the right amount of oil.* Too little, fall vegetables aren’t evenly coated and get dried out. Too much oil, and you get sog.
- Get down and dirty. Use your fingers to toss the root vegetables; you’ll know when everything is evenly coated.
- It’s an all hands job. Excess oil stays in the bowl* when you lift the vegetables out instead of dumping them onto the baking sheet.
- Excuse me; you’re in my space. Don’t crowd the vegetables when roasting. Layered or touching vegetables will steam as water evaporates instead of roasting. A surefire way to soggy, not roasted vegetables!
- It’s getting hot in here! Make sure the oven is 400°F (205°C). An inexpensive oven thermometer is a HUGE help when baking and roasting.
Variations For Roasted Fall Vegetables
A cornucopia of fall vegetables can be switched in and out of this roasted vegetable recipe. Here are a few ideas for roasted veggies:
- Bacon pieces add a salty, smokey flavor, especially when added to roasted Brussels sprouts.
- Celery root (celeriac) is often overlooked as a roasted veggie with its sweet, mild hint of celery with potato flavor, a lower-carb low-calorie alternative to potatoes.
- Radishes are absolutely mind-bogglingly delicious when roasted! Get a bag of the multi-colored Easter egg radishes and surprise everyone by serving them roasted!
- Garlic Bulbs are the best! Sweet, buttery little bites of joy peel, toss, and roast.
How To Store Oven Roasted Vegetables
Leftovers
Roasted fall vegetables will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days in an airtight container.
Reheat Oven-roasted veggies at 400°F for 15-20 minutes until hot and crisped. Reheat in a cast iron skillet or an air-fryer. Use 3-minute intervals with the air-fryer, stir and continue until they are hot.
How to Freeze
Storing leftover root vegetables in the freezer is no problem; properly wrapped they should last 2-3 months.
Serving Suggestion
- Serve on a platter surrounding roasted meat as a gorgeous focal dish.
- Instead of french fries, serve roasted veggies with Grilled Cheese, burgers, hot dogs, or sandwiches.
- Leftover roasted vegetables are great in a Pasta Frita or Broccoli Cheddar Quiche.
- Sweet caramelized and tasty morsels can be pureed or added to a soup like my Butternut Squash Soup.
