A quick and flavorful side dish that can elevate any meal. These honey roasted carrots are perfectly caramelized and come together in just 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound of fresh carrots, peeled and cut into sticks or rounds
2 tablespoons of honey (preferably raw or local)
2 tablespoons of olive oil (extra virgin recommended)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Fresh parsley or thyme, chopped (optional for garnish)
Additional honey drizzle for serving (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the peeled and cut carrots with olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure all the carrots are evenly coated.
Spread the honey-coated carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Once roasted, remove the carrots from the oven. If desired, sprinkle with fresh herbs and drizzle with additional honey before serving.
