What Carrots to Use?

This time of year, carrot tops are fresh and abundant in farmers market and stores. I used carrot tops but you can certainly use regular carrots or baby carrots.

Cook’s Tip

The secret to this recipe is to roast the carrots at 400F for 25-30 minutes (depending on the size of your carrots) so they become so tender that they taste almost like roasted sweet potatoes!

Do You Roast with the Skin on Carrots?

Yes, you can roast whole carrots with the skin on. Just make sure you scrub and clean the skin so there is no dirt on the surface. I prefer to peel the skin off before oven roasting.

How to Cut Carrots for Roasting?

I didn’t cut the carrots but you can cut them into chunky pieces or rounds like coins. It’s totally up to you.

    5. My family has always enjoyed honeyed carrots, and I have experimented with the recipe for years. Great way to get kids to eat some veg.

      You can cook them in the microwave too – this recipe would work, but I ways liked brown sugar rather than honey in a mw recipe.

      Looking forward to giving your recipe a try.

      Cheers

    12. Hi there! I am making these carrots tonight with my meatloaf. The meatloaf needs to bake for 1 gr @ 350 so I would like to throw in the carrots at the same time. Will I need to adjust my baking time @ 350? I see the recipe recommends 400…Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

    16. I rarely eat carrots, but your recipe is so simple, and the picture looked so good, I had to try. So, I just made these carrots tonight exactly as written, and they were a hit. Next time I’m making double. Over the years, I’ve made quite a few dishes off your site, and they’re all very good. Thanks for sharing your passion. Don’t let haters get to you. Some people are just plain rude. Keep up the good work.

      • The “benefits” of honey are over touted. Sure, it’s maybe slightly better for you than refined white sugar, but really only barely. Your body processes it the same as any other sugar. It’s something to be used in moderation and not as a “health food.” There’s really no point in worrying about “losing the benefits” of honey in a recipe like this, because you shouldn’t be relying on a sugar for your nutrients anyway, see what I mean?
