Ingredients

1/3 cup butter, divided
2 onions, chopped
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
1 cup 35% cream
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tsp honey
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp nutmeg
500 g parsnips, peeled and cut into quarters lengthwise
500 g carrots, peeled and cut into quarters lengthwise
1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tsp crumbled dried sage

Instructions

PREHEAT oven to 400F. Melt ¼ cup of butter in a large pot over medium-high. Add onions and cook until soft, about 8 min. Stir in flour for 1 min. Whisk in broth until smooth. Whisk in cream, Dijon, honey, salt and nutmeg. Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture thickens slightly, about 2 min.
PLACE parsnips and carrots in a 9 × 13-in. baking dish. Pour sauce overtop, tossing to coat. Cover with foil. Bake in top third of oven, until parsnips are easily pierced with a knife, 40 to 50 min. Microwave remaining butter in a bowl until melted. Stir in bread crumbs, parmesan and sage. Sprinkle over vegetables. Continue baking, uncovered, until golden, about 10 min.
