Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes
- 2 pounds baby potatoes (halved or quartered)
Glaze
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Garnish
- Fresh parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the optimal roasting temperature before the potatoes go in.
- Prepare Potatoes: Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into halves or quarters depending on size, making sure that all pieces are roughly uniform for even cooking.
- Make Glaze: In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, honey, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Coat Potatoes: Transfer the cut potatoes to a large bowl, pour the honey mustard glaze over them, and toss thoroughly to ensure every piece is evenly coated in the flavorful mixture.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the coated potatoes out in a single layer to allow even roasting and crisping.
- Roast Potatoes: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the potatoes for 25-30 minutes. Halfway through the cooking time, turn the potatoes to promote even browning and tenderness.
- Garnish and Serve: Once potatoes are golden brown and tender, remove them from the oven and sprinkle fresh parsley over the top to add a fresh pop of color and flavor before serving.
Notes
- For best results, select baby potatoes of similar size to ensure uniform cooking.
- Adjust the amount of honey or mustard based on your preferred sweetness and tanginess.
- You can use fresh garlic instead of garlic powder if desired, approximately 1-2 minced cloves.
- To make this recipe vegan, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Leftovers store well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat crisply in an oven or air fryer.
