🥕 Honey Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots — Sweet, Savory, and Perfectly Caramelized

It might sound like a bold claim to call roasted carrots “special,” but once you taste the sweet, sticky honey butter, the savory garlic notes, and that final burst of freshness from parsley, you’ll get it.

Ingredients

    • 2 pounds baby carrots

    • 1/2 cup butter

    • 1/4 cup honey

    • 4 garlic cloves, minced (or 2 tsp garlic powder)

    • 1/2 teaspoon salt

    • Cracked black pepper, to taste

    • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley

Instructions

    1. Melt butter in a pan or skillet over medium heat.

    1. Pour in honey and cook, while stirring, until completely melted through the butter.

    1. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly.

    1. Add the carrots and allow the sauce to thicken for a further minute, tossing the carrots through the sauce.

    1. Season with salt and pepper.

    1. Transfer carrots to a large, lightly greased baking sheet in a single layer so they cook evenly.

    1. Roast for 20 minutes at 425°F, or until carrots are fork-tender.

    1. Broil for 2–3 minutes on high heat to crisp/char the edges.

    1. Top with parsley before serving.
