I was checking out some blogs yesterday and saw Honey Roasted Carrots over at Sarah's place, they looked amazing and I knew I wanted to make them right away!
I have roasted about every vegetable, but for some reason I have never roasted carrots. These were caramelized and tasted amazing! I finished with Grey Sea Salt which added a nice contrast.
Seriously, I could of eaten them ALL, but I shared with my husband because I would of felt guilty otherwise!
Carrots (I used 3)
1 tbl honey
1 tbl olive oil
Sea Salt or Grey Salt or even Kosher salt for finishing
Preheat oven to 425 degrees
Peel your carrots and cut into 3-4 inch lengths
Cut each length in half, cut the half into half again
Place your carrots on a non stick baking sheet
Mix the oil and honey with the carrots
Bake for 20 minutes
Remove pan from the oven, and flip them around
Bake for an additional 10 to 20 minutes or until they are tender and browned (as you can see we like them well caramelized)
Place on serving dish and drizzle a bit more honey on top and finish with your salt. A bit of Modena Balsamic Vinegar would be good as well!
And last, but not least, my most favorite wife of a Firefighter, and humorist in her own right, Donna at My Tasty Treasures gave me an award. Thank you so much! You need to check out her blog, she is funny and an amazing cook!
I hereby present it to YOU, YOU and yes YOU!

I'm glad you liked them! Sometimes I think people get tired of my roasted vegetable obsession :)
Congrats on your award - you deserve it.
Roasted veggies are my favorite (as you know). Carrots are on my to do list - they look fantastic.
I saw Sarah's post too and was very intrigued. Yours came out great, I definitely have to give them a try.

I saw these too and thought they looked fab. I've roasted carrots with other veg, but never with honey, I will have to give them a try.
Congrats on your awards, Cheryl, they are well deserved.
I've done sauteed carrots in butter and honey, but I like the idea of roasted carrots with honey. Yum!
If I have to eat a carrot it must be cooked and soft.. I think I may actually like your way of doing it.
I need to try these out on my kids!
I like the sound of carrots roasted in honey.
Mmmmm...nice & dark!
Thanks for posting; I'm haning out at a friends ranch and we are having guests for dinner. The guys have been out on their big green machines (John Deere tractors) all day bringing in the hay. I wanted to have something special to go with the roast and carrots sounds great.
