Preheat oven to 375°F.

Peel the beets with a vegetable peeler, and chop them into 1-inch cubes. Chop the tops (fronds) off the fennel bulb, and slice the bulb into 1/4–inch strips. Slice the orange into 1/2-inch pieces, or use segments if you prefer.

Top the beets, fennel, and oranges with the melted coconut oil or butter, and toss to combine. Spread evenly in an oven-safe dish, and bake for 30-40 minutes or until the beets are fork-tender.
