Roasted glazed carrots are the easy and delicious side dish you are seeking to elevate your Easter dinner. It’s so simple you can also make this recipe to accompany a rotisserie chicken from the market.
Any type of carrot works for this recipe. This time around I used baby carrots from my Melissa’s Produce veggie basket. Roasting really brings out the best flavor in carrots. Those caramelized edges are super yummy.
Ingredients for Glazed Carrots
- 2 lbs baby carrots or sliced carrots
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (or 1 tbsp honey)
- 2 tbsp butter, melted (or olive oil)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp white pepper
- Parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions for Glazed Carrots
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Wash, lightly peel and slice carrots (if needed, I use entire baby carrots). Toss the carrots in a bowl with honey (or sugar), butter, oil, salt and pepper. Spread on to a cookie sheet.
Roast the carrots for 15 minutes.
Toss the carrots, and then roast another 15 minutes.
Remove when the carrots are soft with caramelized edges.
Sprinkle with parsley, and serve warm with your dinner!
Easy tip: Leftovers are awesome salad toppers so make extra and store in your refrigerator.
