How to Make Maple Roasted Cantaloupe

Transforming cantaloupe into a sweet treat is a quick and easy three-ingredient recipe. All you need to do is place cut up pieces of cantaloupe on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

Toss the cantaloupe pieces with maple syrup and vanilla extract and bake. Adding maple syrup gives the melon an almost caramelized coating and the vanilla helps to amp up the flavours of maple syrup, making it sweeter and richer.

After 20 minutes in the oven, you have a healthy, sweet treat. When you take a bite, each piece is so soft it almost melts in your mouth. Yum!

Maple Roasted Cantaloupe Makes A Tasty Breakfast and Dessert

When Maple Roasted Cantaloupe is warm and fresh out the oven, it is amazing. On its own, it’s a healthy treat that you can definitely feel good about. But it’s also a great topping for other delicious foods like yogurt or ice cream.

When Maple Roasted Cantaloupe is added to a bowl of vanilla yogurt, you have a perfectly tasty breakfast or snack. Add it to ice cream and you have a wonderful, fruity dessert.

Whether your cantaloupe is hard, soft, or a little watery, roasting it makes every bite of your fruit sweeter and even more delicious. After a short time in the oven, you’ll have a softer, tastier fruit with lightly singed edges.

    With a ripe cantaloupe it’s delicious with or without maple syrup. With a melon that “just misses” its sweet spot, the syrup (or a little brown sugar) makes it perfect. Thank you!

    This sounds delicious. Do you know if a sugar-free maple syrup would work? Or would it taste okay without using syrup?

      Thanks Sheila! I haven’t tried it with sugar-free maple syrup, but I’m sure it would be delicious. Without any maple syrup, it would still be tasty, just not as sweet. Let me know how it turns out! 🙂

    I’m definitely going to try this – I think cantaloupe may be in season (or at least on sale locally) and it’s rather boring and plain raw. This sounds fantastic!
