Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound baby carrots (or whole carrots, peeled and sliced into sticks)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter Can be substituted with coconut oil for a vegan option.
  • 2 tablespoons honey Can be replaced with maple syrup for a vegan alternative.
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced If allergic to garlic, can be omitted or substituted with garlic powder.
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • as needed Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, then stir in the honey and minced garlic. Allow to bubble for about a minute, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the baby carrots with the honey-garlic mixture, ensuring each piece is well coated. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Spread the coated carrots in a single layer on the lined baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Cooking
  1. Roast the carrots in the preheated oven for approximately 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through to ensure even browning.
  2. The carrots are done when they are tender when pierced with a fork and slightly golden.
  3. Let the carrots cool for a minute, then transfer to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley.
