Ingredients
Scale
- 1 grapefruit
- 1 navel orange
- 1 cara cara orange
- 2 blood oranges
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Peel all the citrus and slice into thin rounds. Line the rounds up on the baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, combine the coconut oil and honey. Microwave for 20 seconds or until the oil is melted. Stir well to combine and then stir in the vanilla.
- Brush the citrus slices with roughly half of the coconut oil mixture.
- Transfer the baking sheet to the oven and roast the citrus for 10 minutes. Flip over, brush with the remaining coconut oil mixture, and then roast again for another 5-10 minutes, or until the citrus is tender and caramelized in spots.
- Allow to cool before serving.
Serving Suggestions:
We love this over yogurt with granola and a drizzle of honey, or as an ice cream topper, or as a sweet addition to a big salad. The possibilities are endless!
Notes
- You can use any combination of citrus for this recipe. I went with the specified citrus fruits for a variety of flavor and color. ANY citrus will work!
- You can make these ahead and enjoy all week long. Place completely cooled roasted citrus in an airtight container and store in the fridge for several days. If they “weep” a little bit, that’s totally fine! Just scoop up the delicious juices and enjoy along with the fruit.
