Oven-baked vegan tzimmes with beets, sweet potatoes, carrots & Brussels sprouts. No stovetop stirring, no refined sugar — just 10 min prep + 30 min roast. The perfect pareve side dish for your Rosh Hashanah, Sukkot, Passover or Shabbat table.
Preheat oven to 425 and line large rimmed baking tray with unbleached parchment paper if desired for easier clean up.
Prep Veggies: Use a loofah or scrub brush to wash to beets, carrots and sweet potatoes. Peeling is optional....I don't bother. Chop beets, carrots, onions and sweet potatoes into large dice. Wash and trim Brussels sprouts and cut into pieces similar in size to diced veggies.
Place beets, carrots, onions and sweet potatoes onto prepared pan. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with cinnamon, salt and pepper. Toss well.
Roast at 425 for 10 minutes. Add the Brussels sprouts and prunes and mix well. If veggies seem dry, sprinkle on an additional tablespoon of olive oil, or use a splash of orange or pineapple juice. Continue to cook for another 20 minutes, until all veggies are tender and beets have begun to caramelize.
Tzimmes can be made in advance, stored in the fridge, in an airtight container, and gently reheated in a 325 oven until warmed through. Or serve at room temperature.
Notes
For oil-free tzimmes, use the zest and juice of one orange in place of the olive oil. Also, if you like a saucier tzimmes, then add the juice and zest of the orange in addition to the olive oil.
Storage and Reheating
Store: Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week.
Meal prep: absolutely make in advance!
