Roasted Baby Carrots

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425℉.
  • Lightly mist the baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
  • Mix together brown sugar, cinnamon, avocado oil, melted butter, honey, and salt until smooth in a large bowl
  • Add in the baby carrots and mix to fully coat the carrots in the mixture.
  • Transfer the baby carrots to the baking dish in a single layer.
  • Bake for 20 minutes. Turn the carrots halfway through.

    If after 20 minutes the carrots are not to your desired tenderness, bake in additional 5-minute increments.

Notes

Whole carrots can be used in place of baby carrots. Just peel and slice into similar-sized pieces before baking. Alternatively, the whole carrots can be cooked without being cut into smaller pieces. Add baking time to the carrots to reach the desired tenderness. 

Storage:

Allow carrots to cool before storing in a container. Store the leftover cooked carrots in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.

  • Reheat in a skillet: add a little oil to a skillet and warm the leftovers for 3-5 minutes, until warm.
  • Reheat in the oven: drizzle the carrots with a little oil in a baking dish, and bake them at 375 degrees for about 10 minutes.
