- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon honey
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 4
Add the carrots to the bowl and toss until they are well-coated with the herb and oil mixture.

Arrange the carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even roasting.
Step 6
Drizzle the honey over the carrots, adding a layer of sweetness to balance the herbs.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and have a light caramelization on the edges.
Step 8
Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the carrots cool for a couple of minutes.
Step 9
Serve warm as a delicious side dish to complement any main course.
