If you are a fan of honey, butter, and carrots, you will absolutely love this. And I love how super easy roasted carrots are to make too, all you need are just a handful of ingredients. If I can do it, you can do it. Let’s get started!

Ingredients

2 lbs of carrots 907g, doesn’t have to be exact
3 tbsp butter 42g
3 tbsp honey 63g
Pinch of salt
Pinch of pepper
Pinch of garlic powder optional

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 F/205 C. Line a baking sheet or pan with parchment paper, foil, or a silicone baking mat.

Rinse the carrots and dry them. Peel and cut off the ends if desired.

Place the butter in a small bowl and melt it in the microwave, about 30 seconds. Add the honey and mix until combined. Alternatively, add the two to a small pot and heat until barely melted and combined.

Baste the carrots on the first side and then season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, if desired. Turn them over with tongs, and baste and season the other side.

Roast in the oven on the middle rack for 30 to 60 minutes depending on the size of the carrots. Small carrots will be around 30 minutes large carrots closer to 60 minutes. Cook until fork-tender and lightly browned.

Remove from oven and cool a few minutes then serve. Enjoy!
