If you’ve been hanging around here long enough, you know that I love roasted veggies!

Not only does it take just minutes to prepare, but it’s a great way to infuse that caramelized flavor. With these easy roasted carrots, the flavor is to the max and the texture is amazing!

The Parmesan cheese adds that savory flavor to the carrots, while the honey brings in a hint of sweetness.

And because these carrots are roasted, they become tender, yet still slightly crisp, and have that perfect, caramelized texture. Mmm mmm good!

How to Make: 

  1. Simply peel and slice some carrots.
  2. Toss them in a mixture of olive oil, honey, spices.

  4. When the carrots are about halfway done, sprinkle with some Parmesan cheese and return to the oven to continue roasting. Easy peasy and oh-so good!

Can I Use Baby Carrots? 

I’ve only made this recipe with regular carrots that I’ve peeled and sliced, but I imagine baby carrots would work, too! I don’t think you’d need to slice them. 

Can I I Prepare These in Advance? 

Once roasted, the carrots are best enjoyed right away. But leftovers are still delicious! 

Tips for the Best Roasted Carrots: 

  • You can use any variety or color of carrots you’d like for this recipe. 
  • Make sure to slice the carrots as evenly as possible. You want them to be the same size so that they roast at the same rate. 
  • Freshly grated Parmesan will deliver the best flavor, but I won’t judge if you use the stuff in the green shaker can!
