Equipment

  • Baking sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds carrots whole, washed
  • 1 Tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or more to taste
  • 1.5 Tablespoons balsamic vinegar plain or flavor infused
  • honey
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary chopped
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme or 2 sprigs fresh thyme leaves, leaves removed

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Remove stem from carrots and slice in half, lengthwise.
  • Arrange carrots on baking sheet and toss with oil, balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of honey, and salt and pepper.
  • Roast for about 20 minutes, then remove from oven.
  • Turn carrots making sure to coat in remaining drippings, drizzle a little more honey, rosemary and thyme over the top and toss to coat. Use a paper towel to soak up any residual fluids on the bottom of the pan allowing the carrots to roast instead of steam. Return to the oven for 20-30 more minutes, or until tender and caramelized.

Notes

Carrots should be similar size and thickness for even cooking. If any carrots are extra large/thick, cut them in quarters. For baby carrots, roast for 18-20 minutes. Air fryer roasted carrots can be cooked at 400 degrees for 9-12 minutes.
