Honey-roasted carrot medley with garlic, red pepper and cinnamon

This honey-roasted carrot medley with garlic, red pepper, and cinnamon is a delightful dish that combines sweet and spicy flavors to create a uniquely aromatic side dish. Perfect for a holiday dinner or a weeknight meal, this recipe takes simple carrots to a whole new level.

Ingredients:

7 cups carrots
900g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1.55g
1/2 tsp red pepper (spice)
0.90g
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1.30g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g
1 tbsp honey
20g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
2. Prepare the Carrots:
If you haven't already, peel the carrots and cut them into uniform sticks or chunks. This helps ensure they cook evenly.
3. Season the Carrots:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, red pepper, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper. Stir to mix the seasonings well.
4. Coat the Carrots:
Add the carrot pieces to the bowl and toss them in the seasoned olive oil mixture. Make sure all the carrot pieces are evenly coated.
5. Roast the Carrots:
Spread the seasoned carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for about 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and starting to caramelize. Stir halfway through cooking to ensure even roasting.
6. Glaze with Honey:
Once the carrots are roasted, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Drizzle the honey over the hot carrots and toss them gently to coat the carrots evenly with honey.
7. Final Roast:
Return the baking sheet to the oven for an additional 5 minutes. This allows the honey to caramelize slightly and adhere to the carrots.
8. Serve:
Remove the honey-roasted carrots from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy this delicious side dish warm.

Tips:

- For a more uniform roast, try to cut the carrots into similar sizes and shapes.

- If you prefer a little more heat, you can increase the amount of red pepper.

- Feel free to experiment with other spices, such as cumin or coriander, to add different flavor profiles.

- To ensure even roasting, stir the carrots at least once halfway through the roasting process.

- This dish can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven before serving.

The honey-roasted carrot medley with garlic, red pepper, and cinnamon is now ready to serve. Enjoy this flavorful and nutritious side dish that pairs wonderfully with a variety of main courses. The balance of sweet honey, aromatic cinnamon, and spicy red pepper will leave your taste buds wanting more.
