How to Roast Beets 

1-5+ medium-to-large beets, any color/variety

Filtered water (1 teaspoon per beet)

Preheat

the oven to 400F and set a baking tray aside. Scrub each beet well, so no dirt remains.

Cut the top and bottom off of each beet, so only beet flesh (and no root/stems) remain. Place the flat side of the top of each beet onto the cutting board, then carefully quarter each bulb. This helps with even cooking.

Wrap: Lay a medium square of aluminum foil on a flat workspace, then cover it with a square of parchment paper. Place one beet (all 4 quarters) in the center of the two sheets, then pull each corner upward so it will seal at the top. Before you close the seal, add 1 teaspoon of water to the center of the beet to help with moisture. Seal each beet by pulling all four corners together and twisting them together, to close.

Bake: Place each beet with the sealed side up on a baking tray, to prevent the juices from spreading and burning on the bakeware. Bake your beets in the middle rack of the oven for 45-60 minutes; this will vary slightly based on the size of each beet. The beets are almost done when you start to smell a deep, subtly-sweet, and borderline burned beet flavor. Once fully cooked, a fork or metal skewer should slide through the thickest part of each beet easily.

Peel

Once cooked, remove the beets from the oven and carefully open their wrappers. Allow the beets to cool slightly. Once they are cool enough to handle, use your hands (gloves are recommended) to peel the skin off of each beet &#8211; it should glide off easily. A paper towel can also help to remove areas that are not coming off.

Serve &amp; Store

Serve as desired, warm or cold. Roasted beets will last in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week, or can be frozen for up to two months. 

The best way to get big flavor out of root vegetables? Roasting them! These oven roasted beets are easy and come out perfectly tender and sweet.

Olive oil, for rubbing

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

Wash the beets. Trim off all but about 1 inch of the beet greens (you can save them for later and use them in salads). Leaving on the stem helps keep the beets from &#8220;bleeding&#8221; out red juice in the oven.

Rub the beets lightly with olive oil. Place the beets in a covered oven proof dish. (You also can wrap each beet individually in aluminum foil and place them on the oven grates).

Roast the beets for 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours, depending on the size and freshness, until tender when pierced with a fork. Check every 10 minutes until tender; we&#8217;ve found medium sized beets take about 1 hour.

Allow them to cool for a few minutes. Then place them under cool water and rub off the skins with your fingers. (It&#8217;s a little messy and your fingers will get a little stained, but it&#8217;s ok! The beet juice washes off.) Serve immediately, or keep them refrigerated in a sealed container for 3 to 5 days (keep them whole to stay the freshest).

Thank you for the terrific recipe!  This was super easy and the beets turned out great!  I accidentally left the beets in the oven for an hour and 45 minutes and it was no problem. Also, bonus, my hands did not get very pink removing the peels. I will be preparing this way again soon!

These beets were perfect!  I left them in with some other vegetables I had roasting.  1 hour and 45 minutes didn't change them at all.  I put on latex gloves when I removed the skin and sliced them up.  They were gorgeous and delicious.  I served with with baby spinach, marcona almonds, golden raisins, and goat cheese.  Drizzled lemon olive oil and white balsamic over it.  Incredible!  Thank you~

Roasted Beets are sweet and tender and entirely delicious. They are so easy to make and learning how to roast beets the right way is a something every beet lover needs! This roasted beets recipe is quick and easy, no peeling required!

Roasted Beets

Kosher salt (or sea salt)

Preheat oven.

Preheat oven to 400F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and set aside.

Clean Beets and Trim

Scrub beets well to move any dirt or debris. Trim off the leaves and the root end. (Watch video for this step.)

Wrap in Foil

Place each beet on a piece of foil and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Wrap the foil around the beet and place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat for remaining beets.

Roast Beets

Roast beets at 400F for about an hour for medium to large beets. Start checking smaller beets at 30 minutes. For even cooking, flip beets over about halfway through the cooking time.

Beets are done roasting when an inserted skewer or toothpick easily pierces the beet and goes straight through to the center of the beet easily.

Remove Skins.

Let the beets cool for about 20 minutes or until they are cool enough to handle. Remove the skins by gently rubbing the outside of the beet with a paper towel. The skin should slide off. If you have some serious stubborn skins you can use a paring knife or vegetable peeler to remove those skins.

Cut Beets.

Finally, cut the beets into wedges or slices and they’re ready to serve. Keep beets refrigerated until ready to eat for up to 1 week.
