Elevate whole carrots with this easy maple glazed roasted carrots recipe! The combination of roasted carrots with a maple syrup glaze brings a whole new level of sweet caramelization to carrots. Great for weeknight dinners, and fancy enough for holiday dinners!
Ingredients
- 1 lb carrots
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Not necessary but it makes clean up a breeze!
- Prep carrots by wiping them down with a damp rag. No peeling required! If the size of the larger carrots vary a lot, cut them length wise so that they are relatively similar in thickness. Place carrots on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, combine the oil, garlic power, sea salt, and pepper and drizzle over the carrots. Toss to coat evenly.
- Roast in the hot oven for 20 minutes. For best results, don’t stir for those 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, remove from the oven and drizzle the maple syrup on the carrots. Toss and return to the oven for 5-8 more minutes, to allow the sweet carrots to caramelize even more. For larger carrots, add more cooking time until they can easily be pierced with a fork.
- Serve hot! Feel free to garnish with pomegranate arils or fresh herbs for some color.
