Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the carrots, then shred them using a food processor or a box grater.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded carrots, olive oil, honey, ground cinnamon, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the carrots.
Spread the seasoned shredded carrots evenly onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized at the edges.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute or two. If desired, garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
