Honey Glazed Carrots
These honey glazed carrots are an easy sheet pan recipe that turns into a flavorful, sweet and savory side dish.
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots peeled
- ¼ cup honey
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tablespoons melted butter or ghee
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- parsley, thyme or other herbs for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Dice carrots. Preheat your oven to 425°F(220C°). Then, cut the carrots on a diagonal, about 1"-1.5" in length. If your carrots are large and thick, you can slice them in half as well.
- Toss carrots. In a mixing bowl, toss the sliced carrots with the honey, garlic, butter, oil, and spices.
- Roast. Pour the carrots and glaze onto a sheet pan and spread them out. Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, tossing halfway through. You can also broil for 2-3 minutes, to get caramelization on the edges.
- Serve. Transfer carrots to a serving dish and garnish with chopped herbs.
Notes
- Storage tips: Place leftovers in an airtight container and store for up to 3 days in the fridge. You can also freeze this for up to 3 months.
- Reheating tips: Simply reheat in the microwave until the carrots are warmed through.
- I always recommend a heavy duty sheet pan when roasting veggies in the oven, so that your pan doesn't warp and twist.
