Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup maple syrup, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to create the glaze.
Step 2: Place the 2-pound boneless turkey breast in a roasting pan and brush generously with half of the maple glaze. Roast in the oven for 25 minutes.
Step 3: Brush the turkey breast with the remaining glaze and continue roasting for another 20-25 minutes or until an internal temperature of 165°F is reached, the glaze caramelized and edges slightly browned.
Step 4: While turkey roasts, combine 1 cup fresh cranberries, 1 tsp orange zest, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes until cranberries burst and the relish thickens.
Step 5: Remove turkey from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve topped with warm cranberry relish.
