Total Time 20 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound carrots, about 1 large or 2 medium bunches, cut into 2-inch barrels
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the carrots with the olive oil, honey, salt, and several grinds of pepper.
  3. Transfer the carrots to the baking sheet and spread in a single layer. Roast for 15 to 25 minutes, or until fork-tender and lightly browned but not mushy. The timing will depend on the size of your carrots.
  4. Remove from the oven and season to taste. Garnish with parsley and serve.
