- Add all ingredients except for the cut beets to the casserole dish and give it a quick stir. Mix in the beets and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour, removing from oven and stirring and tossing the beets every 20 - 30 minutes. The beets are done when they are easily pierced with a fork.
- Remove from oven, toss the beets and let sit for a few minutes to cool and let the juice reduce a bit more or turn the oven off, stir and let the beets sit in the oven for up to an hour to get the juices nice and syrupy. Serve or store in the fridge to use with the recipe of your choice.
