Equipment

  • roasting pan
  • knife
  • turkey baster
  • cutting board

Ingredients

  • 3 pound boneless turkey breast thawed, I like to take mine out overnight. Make sure there is no added ingredients like sugar.
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup remove for keto and whole30
  • 2 cups water
  • 12 cloves garlic
  • 1 whole onion
  • 3 sprigs rosemary

OPTIONAL: to garnish

  • Pomegranate
  • rosemary springs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Take the turkey out of the plastic. Now, place the breast in the roasting pan. Leave the netting on the breast, this will allow the turkey to stay together. Using your knife, cut the onion in half and poke 12 small holes in the breast. In those small holes you want to add the garlic. For the onion, you want to find divot in the turkey and add that in. The netting will hold it in. Add the rosemary springs all around the breast. Now, add the 2 cups of water to the bottom of the roasting pan. Flip the turkey breast so that the herbs are on the bottom of the roasting pan. Using a spoon or an oiling brush, rub the maple syrup all over the turkey breast, make sure you get it in the cracks too. Add the turkey to the oven and set a timer for 90 minutes. Baste the turkey every 30 minutes to keep it nice and moist.
