Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, and 3 minced garlic cloves until well combined and fragrant.
- Step 2: Place 2 lbs skinless turkey breast in a roasting pan and brush half of the maple-herb glaze evenly over the surface. Season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Arrange 1 lb peeled and cubed sweet potatoes around the turkey, tossing them lightly in the remaining glaze.
- Step 3: Roast in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, basting the turkey with remaining glaze every 15 minutes, until the internal temperature of the turkey reaches 165°F and the sweet potatoes are tender and caramelized at the edges.
- Step 4: Remove from oven and let the turkey rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve the sliced turkey breast alongside the roasted sweet potatoes for a hearty holiday-inspired dinner.
