These Honey Glazed Carrots are the perfect side dish for the holidays or simple weeknight dinners. Once roasted they become caramelized with a sticky, sweet and savory glaze that is so delicious!
1oz / 500gcarrots - I prefer long thin carrots to roast them whole
2tablespoonshoney
2tablespoonsextra virgin olive oil
1garlic clove minced
Salt and black pepper to taste
Garnish with fresh herbs such as parsley or rosemary
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400℉ / 200℃. Prepare the carrots by peeling and trimming off the tops**If using long thin carrots like I have, you can leave them whole. If the carrots are quite thick or large, its best to slice them in half or quarters lengthways
In a small bowl, add the honey, extra virgin olive oil and finely mince the garlic clove. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper and stir together well
Place the carrots in an oven dish and pour over the marinade. Using your hands, toss the carrots so they're all coated and place in a single layer and not overlapping if possible
Roast the carrots in the oven for 20 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and toss them around then roast for a further 15-20 minutes depending on the size of the carrotsCheck them with a fork or toothpick to ensure they are fork tender and cooked to your liking
Serve up your delicious honey glazed carrots with chopped herbs for garnish and drizzle over any leftover dressing that remains in the oven dish. Enjoy with your main and other sides like my garlic mashed potatoes and gravy :)
