Ingredients
  

1 pound (450g) baby carrots, peeled and trimmed

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 tablespoons honey

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Carrots: In a large mixing bowl, combine the baby carrots with salt and pepper. Set aside.

      Make the Honey Garlic Butter: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Remove from heat, then stir in the honey and thyme until well combined.

        Coat the Carrots: Pour the honey garlic butter mixture over the carrots and toss well to ensure they are evenly coated.

          Roast the Carrots: Spread the coated carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

            Bake: Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve warm as a delicious side dish.
