Ingredients
Scale
Let’s get straight to the essentials. Here’s what you’ll need to create this magic:
- 1 pound of carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 3 tablespoons of honey
- 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
If you don’t have cumin on hand, don’t fret. A pinch of ground ginger or even a squirt of lemon juice can do wonders. It’s all about working with what you have, just like my mom did with her magical can of tomatoes.
Instructions
Cooking these carrots is a breeze, and here’s how you do it:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a large bowl, toss the carrot sticks with olive oil, honey, cinnamon, cumin, salt, and pepper. Make sure they’re well-coated.
- Spread the carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and caramelized, stirring halfway through.
- Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool slightly. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.
There you have it! From my kitchen to yours, with love and simplicity.
