How to roast Maple and Honey Glazed Carrots: 

Begin by preheating the oven to 375 degrees and preparing a rimmed baking sheet or casserole dish with non-stick spray.

While the oven is heating up wash and peel the carrots then pat them dry and line them up in a single layer on the baking sheet.

Next, make the glaze to do this you will whisk together brown sugar, honey, maple syrup,  thyme, cumin, garlic salt, salt and pepper until well in a mixing bowl until well combined. 

Pour evenly over the carrots and sprinkle on rosemary and walnuts. 

Bake for 50 minutes or until carrots are tender. While carrots are baking whisk together honey and brown sugar. 

Remove carrots from oven and pour honey and brown sugar mixture over the top. Serve and enjoy. 

My tips for this recipe:

• Change up the seasoning if you want. I’ve made these carrots with Italian seasoning instead of thyme and rosemary and I thought they were just as delicious. Or you can leave out all the seasoning but salt and pepper for an even sweeter version.

• You don’t have to peel the carrots for the recipe if you don’t want to. Just scrub them really well to make sure you wash away all the dirt. Because you are roasting the carrots they will be tender with out without peeling them. 

• You can use two pounds of baby carrots for this recipe. Just reduce the cooking time by 10 minutes. 

Happy Cooking Y’all!
