Ingredients
For the Crumble:
- 1/2 cup
packed dark brown sugar
- 1/2 cup
pecans, chopped
- 1/4 cup
all-purpose flour
- 3 Tbsp.
salted butter, at room temperature
Pinch of smoked paprika
Kosher salt, to taste
For the Vegetables:
- 4
medium sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
- 1
small butternut squash, peeled, seeded and cut into 3/4-inch cubes
- 1 lb.
carrots, peeled and cut into 2 1/2-inch sticks
- 3 Tbsp.
olive oil
- 2 tsp.
fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 1/2 tsp.
kosher salt
Black pepper, to taste
Directions
- Step 1For the crumble: Preheat the oven to 425 ̊. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the brown sugar, pecans, flour, butter, paprika and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl and mash with a fork. Spread the mixture on the baking sheet and bake until everything has melted together and the crumble is golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes. Use your hands to crumble the mixture and set aside.
- Step 2For the vegetables: Combine the sweet potatoes, squash, carrots, oil, thyme, salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl and toss. Divide the vegetables between 2 baking sheets, spread them in an even layer and roast, switching the pans halfway through, until the vegetables are softened and golden brown in spots, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a platter and top with the crumble.
Make-ahead tip: Make the crumble up to 5 days in advance; store in a paper towel-lined airtight container at room temperature.
