Honey roasted carrots

Honey roasted carrots are a delicious and healthy side dish that combines the natural sweetness of carrots with the rich flavors of honey, brown sugar, and olive oil. This recipe is simple to make and can be a delightful addition to any meal.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready by the time you finish the prep work.
2. Prep the Carrots:
Peel the 7 carrots and cut them into sticks or rounds, depending on your preference. Try to keep the pieces uniform in size for even cooking.
3. Prepare the Glaze:
In a small mixing bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Stir well until the honey and sugar are evenly mixed into the oil.
4. Coat the Carrots:
Place the cut carrots in a large mixing bowl. Pour the honey-brown sugar mixture over the carrots. Toss well to ensure that each piece of carrot is coated with the glaze.
5. Season:
Add a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper to the glazed carrots. Toss again to distribute the seasonings evenly.
6. Roasting:
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup. Spread the glazed and seasoned carrots in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not piled on top of each other.
7. Bake:
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast the carrots for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.
8. Serve:
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the carrots to cool for a few minutes. Transfer the roasted carrots to a serving dish.
9. Enjoy:
Serve your delicious Honey Roasted Carrots warm as a sweet and savory side dish!
