Roasted Carrots with Honey
These roasted carrots have the perfect naturally sweetened flavor and the roasting just brings a delicious depth to them.
To make them all you need to do is dice into pieces, drizzle with oil and roast, 30 – 40 minutes while tossing with a honey and vinegar mixture halfway through.
Then finish off with fresh herbs for one ore layer of flavor.
How Long do You Bake Carrots?
Normally I’d roast them just a bit longer than I did here but I was running out of daylight for pictures, but just do it according to your own personal preference, about 30 – 40 minutes.
Just keep in mind that thinner carrots will cook faster than the thicker ones so if you got a bag of the long thin carrots cut back the time as needed.
It may be tempting to leave of the fresh herbs but I do recommend trying it with them. They add the perfect amount of flavor while adding just the right amount of savory contrast to the sweetness..
Who says easy side dishes need to be boring? These honey roasted carrots are anything but! Try them, you’ll be hooked!
Roasting is most definitely one of the best ways, if not thee best way, to cook veggies in my opinion. They just don’t get any better!
