Honey Glazed Oven Roasted Carrots simple steps
- Preheat oven to 400.
- In a small bowl, add cut baby carrots and this handful of ingredients: cinnamon, nutmeg, a pinch of table salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper.
- Tip: If you can’t find baby carrots at the grocery store, substitute them for whole carrots. Peel the large carrots as the skin can cause a bitter taste when cooked and cut into sticks – it works perfectly.
- Drizzle with Olive oil (or vegetable oil) and toss to coat evenly. Option: Add balsamic vinegar.
- Spread carrots out on a sheet pan or rimmed baking sheet.
- Drizzle with honey. Tip: Add a tablespoon of brown sugar if the honey does not give you the sweetness you want.
- Option A: Include a mixture of vegetables, such as cubed sweet potatoes, red onion wedges, or cubed butternut squash.
- Option B: The oven temperature works well for other root vegetables like beets, parsnips, and potatoes.
- Roast for 15 minutes or until carrots become tender and start to caramelize. Option: Toss the carrots with fresh herbs and serve.

I found you on the bloghop and sure am happy I did. I have made honey glazed carrots before and my kids love them, but I haven’t thought of adding cinnamon and spices, yummy!
Please tell me why do you drizzle the honey over the carrots? Could you just mix the honey and spices and carrots, then lay them on the baking sheet? Besides, I don’t have a fancy honey “drizzler”
The honey adds a flavor our family loves.
I did exactly that and they turned out great!!!!
These were great!!
