Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound carrots
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
- Wash and peel the carrots (or scrub well if you prefer to leave the skin on). Trim the tops, leaving a bit of green for presentation.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in honey, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.
- Place the carrots on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with the honey garlic butter mixture. Toss until evenly coated.
- Roast in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, turning the carrots halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized.
- Remove from oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired, and serve warm.
