Ingredient Checklist:
- 10-12 Carrots, peeled and then cut in half (about 1 bag of carrots), OR 2 dozen tiny carrots.
- teaspoon of cinnamon and pepper.
- brown sugar, dark
- 1/4 cup of butter
INSTRUCTION:
Peel and wash your carrots if you choose to use whole ones. I prefer using bigger carrots.
Carrots should be laid out in a single layer on a baking sheet, in a cast iron skillet, or in a casserole dish that has been lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Sprinkle it with cinnamon, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Carrots and brown sugar mixture should be combined.
Combine the carrots with butter. After putting the carrots in the heated oven, roast them for 45 to an hour.
The natural sugars in the buttery carrots caramelize during roasting to provide a gorgeous glaze that is incredibly flavorful.
Top your carrots with the green tops, Italian spice, fresh thyme, or parsley for a flavor boost.
Carrot leftovers should be kept in an airtight container. They can be warmed up in the microwave or over medium-high heat on the stove.
What to serve with Brown Sugar Baked Carrots:
For the holidays, serve these sweet carrots alongside a glazed spiral ham or a Thanksgiving turkey on your dinner table.
With roast chicken, pork chops, or as a side to pot pie are some more fantastic main dish options.
Pair this side dish of carrots with red potatoes or another ideal side dish.
What kinds of substitutions can I make to my carrots recipe?
You can change the butter glaze my swapping brown sugar for by including maple syrup, garlic powder, or balsamic vinegar. Use olive oil in place of butter.
At 350 degrees, how long should carrots be roasted?
Roasting your carrots will take about 30 to 35 minutes.
How Should I Cut a Carrot?
Hold the carrot with your fingers curled beneath while using a sharp knife. If you want carrot circles, cut your carrot cleanly across the length and width at a thickness of half an inch.
Square off one of the ends to create a carrot stick, then cut it crosswise and to the appropriate length.
