Steps:

1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Tips:

  • Trim the green beans: Before roasting, trim the ends of the green beans to remove any tough or woody stems. This will ensure that they cook evenly and have a more tender texture.
  • Use a high-quality maple syrup: The quality of the maple syrup you use will greatly impact the flavor of the roasted green beans. Choose a pure maple syrup that is Grade A or higher. Darker syrups will have a more robust flavor than lighter syrups.
  • Roast the green beans at a high temperature: Roasting the green beans at a high temperature will help to caramelize the sugars in the maple syrup and create a delicious nutty flavor. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius).
  • Toss the green beans with the maple syrup mixture before roasting: This will help to ensure that the green beans are evenly coated with the maple syrup and spices. You can use a large bowl or a plastic bag to toss the green beans.
  • Roast the green beans until they are tender-crisp: The roasting time will vary depending on the thickness of your green beans. Aim for a roasting time of about 15-20 minutes, or until the green beans are tender-crisp and slightly browned.
  • Serve the roasted green beans immediately: Roasted green beans are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served as a side dish or as a snack.

Conclusion:

Nutty maple roasted green beans are a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be roasted in under 30 minutes.
