Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the carrots and cut them into thin sticks, approximately 3 inches long.
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth.
Toss the carrot sticks in the honey mixture until they are evenly coated, then spread them out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake the carrots in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
While the carrots are roasting, slice the avocado and lightly drizzle it with lemon juice to prevent browning.
Toast the sourdough bread slices until golden, if desired.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous layer of hummus on one side of each slice of bread.
On four slices of bread, layer the roasted carrots, arugula or baby spinach, avocado slices, and feta cheese if using.
Top with the remaining slices of bread, hummus-side down, and gently press together.
Cut the sandwiches in half, serve immediately, and enjoy!
