Roasted Carrots Recipe

This roasted carrots recipe is easy, because it starts with pre-peeled, washed and trimmed baby carrots. Of course, you can use regular carrots for this recipe, if you prefer. I like to serve these roasted carrots with everything from BBQ chicken to meatloaf.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. pre-cut, peeled and washed baby carrots
  • 1 tsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 Tbsp. butter
  • 1/2 tsp. sugar

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

  2. Toss carrots with olive oil and salt. Spread out in an even layer on a sturdy baking sheet.

  3. Place on the center rack of the oven. Roast 15 minutes. Stir. Roast another 10-15 minutes until tender when pierced with a fork.

  4. Melt butter. Toss roasted carrots with melted butter and sugar.

  5. Serve immediately.
