A drizzle of balsamic glaze over oven-roasted beets with a touch of ripe blackberries, crushed pecans and soft goat cheese crumbles – this Roasted Beets with Berries and Goat Cheese recipe brings a beautiful twist to classic roasted beets. It’s a healthy beetroot recipe that’s as bright as it is flavorful.

  • Total Time: 60 mins.
  • Yield: 6-8 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 pounds purple beets, preferably medium in size
  • 6 ounces blackberries, rinsed and dried
  • 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons crushed pecans
  • Balsamic glaze, for drizzle

Instructions

  1. Place an oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cover a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray the aluminum foil with a thin layer of non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Remove any greens from the beets, being careful not to nick the tops of the beets too closely to the flesh to avoid a juicy purple mess. Scrub your beets under warm water to remove any dirt and grime. Use a sponge, if needed.
  3. Cut the top and bottom ends off the beets. Next, slice the beets in half, and then into quarters.
  4. Roast beets for 50 minutes. At the 25 minute mark, pierce a few pieces of beetroot with a fork to check progress, and then toss. 10 minutes before completion, add the blackberries (dispersed among the beets) to the baking sheet.
  5. Transfer the beets and blackberries to a serving platter and sprinkle with crumbled goat cheese. Garnish with the pecans and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Serve immediately and enjoy!
