Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  2. Spread the seasoned carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Notes

For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary before roasting. You can also drizzle with a touch of maple syrup or honey during the last 5 minutes of cooking for a sweeter glaze.
