Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to create the glaze.
Step 2: Place 2 lbs pork loin roast on a rimmed baking sheet and brush the honey-Dijon glaze all over the surface.
Step 3: In a separate bowl, toss 3 medium peeled and cut carrots and 3 medium peeled and cut parsnips with 3 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp maple syrup until evenly coated.
Step 4: Arrange the vegetables around the pork loin on the baking sheet.
Step 5: Roast in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F and continue roasting for another 20-25 minutes, basting the pork with remaining glaze halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and vegetables are tender.
Step 6: Remove from oven and let pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve sliced pork with the maple-glazed root vegetables.
