Notes + Tips for Honey & Thyme Roasted Carrots
- Use parchment paper to make these carrots! The honey and brown sugar that coat these carrots will caramelize giving these carrots that deliciously sweet taste but this can burn on a baking sheet if not line with parchment paper. Using parchment paper will avoid making a mess.
- Don’t over cook these carrots! I like a small bite in the middle of my carrots so I roasted my carrots for about 25 minutes. If you like your carrots more soft then roast them for 30 minutes or until they are your desired doneness.
- Add butter and flip carrots halfway through. Adding little cubes of butter of the carrots makes this recipe super easy! The heat in the oven will melt the butter so just flip the carrots halfway through to make sure they are coated evenly.
