Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb carrots peeled and cut into 2- to 3-inch-long, 1/2-inch-thick sticks
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • 1 large rimmed baking sheet

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Melt the butter in a large bowl.
  4. Stir in the honey, salt, and pepper.
  5. Add the carrots and toss until evenly coated.
  6. Spread the carrots in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  7. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, turning the carrots halfway through, until tender and browned at the edges.

Notes

For even browning, spread the carrots in a single layer without crowding the pan. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 4 days; freezing is not recommended. Use dairy-free butter for a dairy-free option.
