Savour the sweetness of carrots in a new way with this easy and delicious Honey-Glazed Roasted Carrots recipe. This side dish combines the natural sweetness of carrots and honey with a hint of thyme, creating a delightful medley of flavors that’s perfect for any meal!

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound of carrots, peeled and cut into thick slices
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons of honey
  • 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper for easy clean-up.
  2. Prepare the carrots: Peel the carrots and cut them into thick slices or chunks – the choice is yours! If your carrots are small and thin, you can also roast them whole.
  3. Season the carrots: In a large mixing bowl, combine the carrots, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss until the carrots are well coated.
  4. Roast the carrots: Spread the carrots out in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized. Be sure to flip the carrots halfway through the cooking time for even roasting.
  5. Glaze the carrots: Drizzle the honey over the roasted carrots and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves. Return the carrots to the oven and roast for another 5 minutes, or until the honey is bubbly and glazed over the carrots.
  6. Serve: Remove the carrots from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Transfer to a serving dish, ensuring to scoop up all the delicious, sweet glaze. These Honey-Glazed Roasted Carrots are best served warm, as a side dish to your favourite main course.

Enjoy your home-cooked, sweet, and savoury Honey-Glazed Roasted Carrots! They’re not only nutritious but also a vibrant addition to any meal.
