Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
Peel the parsnips and cut them into 2" pieces. The thicker end of the parsnips can be cut in half lengthwise.
Toss parsnips with oil, maple syrup, sage, and salt & pepper to taste.
Place the parsnips on the parchment paper and roast 18-22 minutes or until tender and lightly browned.
