Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lb rainbow carrots, scrubbed and trimmed
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
- In a large bowl, toss the trimmed carrots with olive oil, honey, dried thyme, salt, and pepper until they are evenly coated.
- Spread the coated carrots in a single layer on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Do not overlap them.
- Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, turning the carrots halfway through the cooking time, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Remove from the oven and serve immediately.

- For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of garlic powder with the thyme.
- Line your sheet pan with parchment paper before starting for the absolute easiest cleanup.
