ingredients

8 medium beets (about 2 lbs)
3 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons honey (fireweed or sage honey are good)
¹⁄₂ teaspoon ground ginger
salt and pepper, to taste

directions

Scrub beets but do not peel.
Place beets in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 40 minutes, or until just tender. Drain.
When cool enough to handle, peel beets, cut into quarters and place them in a oven-proof casserole dish, with a lid.
Pre-heat oven to 350ºF.
In small saucepan, melt butter and mix in honey and ginger. Season with salt and pepper and pour over beets.
Cover with lid and bake 45-60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beets are well glazed.

I really liked the flavour of these beets, although I will probably add more ginger next time. I baked the beets instead of boiling them and then baked them further with the glaze. Very sweet and tasty, thank you :)

Followed the recipe to the T, except that I added bacon, which I cooked first then added to the sauce before baking, and added pecans right when I took it out of the oven. Although it turned out wonderful, in hind sight I would have added the bacon at the same time as the pecans, right after baking.

Wonderful recipe! Made exactly as written except that I buyed precooked beets (not pickled! just boiled) because I didn't find fresh ones. Thanks for posting this keeper!<br/>Made for A Rainbow of Colours of the Diabetes Forum.
