Balsamic Honey Glazed Carrots
Tender roasted carrots coated with a sweet balsamic honey glaze. Our family gobbles these honey roasted carrots up in no time, and I think you're going to love this recipe as much as we do!
Recipe: Ingredients
- 14 large carrots with their tops
- 2 tbsp honey or other vegan honey substitute
- 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 pinch sea salt more or less, to taste
Recipe: Instructions
- Set your oven to preheat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with a sheet of parchment paper. Don't skip this step! The glaze will caramelize in the oven and if you don't line your baking sheet you're going to have a heck of a time getting it clean! Parchment paper also prevents sticking so you don't have to add any oil or fat to the recipe which keeps it nice and light!
- Wash your carrots very well, making sure to scrub off any lingering mud.
- Snip the tops off leaving about 1 inch of green attached.
- Dry the carrots and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Whisk together the honey and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl and brush it on to the carrots. Drizzle any remaining honey mixture over the carrots and roll them around a bit to make sure they're all well coated. Sprinkle a pinch or two of sea salt over the carrots.
- Once the oven has preheated, roast the carrots for 18-22 minutes or until they're roasted to the texture you prefer.
- When you pull them out of the oven they'll be tender and coated with the sticky honey balsamic glaze.
- Transfer carrots to a platter and serve while still immediately.
Recipe: Notes
To make additional sauce, if desired, simply heat an additional 4 tablespoons of honey and 4 teaspoons of balsamic vinegar over low heat, whisking until combined and smooth. Serve with additional sauce, if desired.
