Equipment
large mixing bowl
Whisk
baking sheet
parchment paper
Oven
Ingredients
2poundcarrots(peeled and cut into sticks or left whole if small)
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, honey, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Add the carrots to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the honey garlic mixture.
Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not crowded.
Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the carrots are tender and lightly caramelized.
If desired, sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy.
Notes
For extra caramelization, make sure the carrots are spread out in a single layer and avoid overcrowding the pan. Smaller carrots may need less roasting time, while thicker carrots may need a few extra minutes.
