Tender maple roasted carrots caramelized in the oven with a sweet, buttery maple glaze. An easy and flavorful side dish for weeknight dinners or holiday meals.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds carrots, peeled and cut diagonally into 2-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and prepare a large baking sheet.
  2. Place the carrots on the baking sheet.
  3. Combine the melted butter, maple syrup, and brown sugar, then pour the mixture over the carrots. Season with salt and black pepper and toss until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the carrots in a single layer and roast until tender and caramelized, about 25 to 30 minutes, tossing once during cooking.
  5. Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Cut the carrots into similar-size pieces so they cook evenly.
  • Use pure maple syrup for the best flavor.
  • For deeper caramelization, spread the carrots in a single layer without overcrowding the pan.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat before serving.
