Ingredients
  • 1 lb Carrots
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.

Prepare the Carrots

Wash, peel, and trim the carrots. Cut them into even pieces – either coins, sticks, or diagonal slices. This helps them cook evenly.

Season

In a bowl, toss the carrots with olive oil, honey, thyme, salt, and pepper. Make sure the carrots are well coated.

Roast

Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.

Serve

Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Garnish with extra thyme, if desired.
