Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound carrots peeled
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ tablespoon hot honey
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ bunch green onions optional
  • ½ teaspoon bread dipping seasoning optional
  • 1 tablespoon parsley finely chopped optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400℉ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a baking mat.
  • Mix the olive oil, hot honey and salt in a small bowl until it's fully combined.
  • Wash, peel and cut the carrots. I like to cut them into 3-4 inch long pieces or leave them full length. If the carrots are extra wide, cut them in half or quarters so that all the pieces are of somewhat similar size.
  • If you are using green onions, wash and cut them into the same lengths as the carrots. Set them aside.
  • Add the carrots to a large bowl. Drizzle the olive oil and hot honey mixture over the carrots and toss the carrots until all are fully coated. [If you are keeping the carrots full length, they are harder to toss. You can use your hands to fully coat the carrots.]
  • Put the coated carrots on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  • After the carrots are on the baking sheet, toss the green onions in the bowl with any leftover hot honey olive oil mixture and set aside. They will be added to the carrots halfway through the roasting time.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes. Halfway through, remove the carrots from the oven and flip them. If you are using green onions, add them now and sprinkle the bread dipping seasoning over the vegetables. Check at 20 minutes and remove for a firmer texture or roast an additional 5 minutes for a softer texture. Carrots will continue to soften a bit after removed from the oven. Serve hot.
