| delicious! honey and orange help bring out the natural sweetness of these beauties adapted from delicious happens.com |
1 lb carrots (I used a bunch of small carrots with the tops still on but baby carrots or large would work fine) , cleaned and trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil (or melted butter)
2 tablespoons honey
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
freshly grated orange zest
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Lay the carrots in a single layer on a foil lined cookie sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and mix until the carrots are evenly coated. Drizzle with honey and season with salt and pepper. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the carrots are just tender. If you’re using regular carrots in lieu of baby carrots – then slice them in about 1/4 inch slices. Turn the carrots once or twice for even baking. Transfer the carrots to a serving dish and sprinkle with freshly grated orange zest.
