How to Make Easy Honey Garlic Butter Roasted Carrots
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the carrots by peeling and slicing them into even pieces, about 1-inch thick.
Whisk together melted butter, honey, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until well combined.
Toss the carrot pieces in the honey garlic mixture until they’re fully coated.
Spread the carrots on a baking tray in a single layer.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Garnish by sprinkling with fresh herbs before serving.
Store leftover carrots in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to maintain their delightful texture.
