Market

  • 2 pounds carrots, peeled
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter or ghee
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • Chopped parsley & thyme
  •  

INSTRUCTIONS 

  • Preheat your oven to 425F/220C. Then, cut the carrots on a diagonal, about 1″-1.5″ in length. If your carrots are large and thick, you can slice them in half as well.
    In a mixing bowl, toss the sliced carrots with the honey, garlic, butter, oil, and spices.
    Pour the carrots and glaze onto a sheet pan and spread them out.
    Roast for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through. You can also broil for 2-3 minutes, to get caramelization on the edges. Transfer carrots to a serving dish and garnish with chopped herbs.

TIPS

  • To Freeze: Use a freezer-safe bag or container and store for up to 3 months.
  • For Reheating: Simply reheat in the microwave until the carrots are warmed through.

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE HONEY GLAZE

  • Honey: You can use clover, wildflower, or any variety of honey you like.
  • Garlic: A little bit of minced garlic perfectly balances the sweetness.
  • Butter: Helps to give carrots that glossy finish and rich flavor.
  • Olive oil: Just a little bit helps to prevent the butter from burning.
  • Ground spices: I love ginger and cinnamon which play nicely with the carrots’ sweetness.
  • Fresh herbs: before serving spread the herbs
