Ingredients

  • 2 bunches baby carrots go for the ones that have the tops still on
  • 1 tablespoon extra light olive oil
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 sprigs fresh thyme optional
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • tablespoons honey

Instructions

  • Chop of the leafy carrot tops and scrub well.
  • Toss the carrots in the olive oil, salt and black pepper. Place the carrots on a rimmed baking sheet and throw on the sprigs of fresh thyme.
  • Slide the carrots into a preheated 425 degree oven and roast for 15 minutes. Meanwhile prepare the glaze by mixing the balsamic vinegar with the honey.
  • Remove the carrots from the oven and drizzle on the glaze. Toss to coat and place the carrots back into the oven for 10-15 more minutes. Just give them another toss halfway through.
  • Remove and discard the thyme sprigs and serve.
