My favorite recipe for honey roasted carrots is made even better with a drizzle of our simple, homemade Tahini Sauce. See the tahini sauce recipe for instructions.
You Will Need
2 pounds carrots, scrubbed clean or peeled
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon ground coriander (substitute: ground cumin is delicious, too)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons tahini sauce
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (204C). Lightly grease a baking sheet or dish large enough to hold the carrots in a single layer. (A little oil on the pan prevents sticking). Or line with parchment paper.
Cut the carrots into sticks about 2-3 inches long. For thicker carrots, cut them in half lengthwise for even cooking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, coriander, salt, and pepper.
Add the carrots to the bowl and toss them until they’re well coated with the mixture.
Spread the carrots in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet.
Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes or until tender and lightly browned.
Drizzle the tahini sauce over the roasted carrots. Serve.
