- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper to create the glaze.
- Place the prepared carrots in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
- Pour the maple dijon glaze over the carrots and toss again until every piece is well coated.
- Spread the glazed carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, tossing halfway through, until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
- Cut carrots into uniform sizes so they cook evenly.
- For extra shine, you can brush on a little more glaze during the last five minutes of roasting.
- This recipe works well with baby carrots if you skip the peeling step.
