Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash and peel the carrots. Slice them diagonally into approximately 1/4-inch thick rounds for an appealing presentation.
Place the sliced carrots in a large bowl.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Drizzle the olive oil over the carrots and toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the minced garlic, salt, and black pepper over the carrots. Mix well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Transfer the seasoned carrots to a baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer for even cooking.
Place the rosemary sprigs directly on top of the carrots to infuse their aroma during baking.
Roast the carrots in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure even browning.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven once the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized around the edges.
Discard the rosemary sprigs. Serve warm as a side dish and enjoy!
