Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium pieces carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Peel the carrots and cut them into evenly sized sticks, approximately 3-4 inches long and 1/4 inch thick.
Place the carrot sticks in a large bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the carrots and toss again to ensure they're evenly coated.
Spread the seasoned carrot sticks out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they aren’t overlapping to allow for even roasting.
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the carrots halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized on the edges.
Remove the carrots from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as a snack, appetizer, or side dish. Enjoy!
