After posting your favourite Honey Garlic Butter Sauce, what better way to use that sauce than to throw it on some carrots and let the oven do its thing?

How To Roast Carrots
It doesn’t get any easier.
- Peel carrots or leave them with skin on: this is personal preference. You don’t need to peel carrots as long as they are washed and scrubbed clean to remove any dirt. We prefer the flavour of peeled roasted carrots.
- Trim ends then halve for faster roasting time.
- Drizzle with HALF the sauce. This is where the secret lies to getting maximum flavour out of your roasted carrots! When the remaining sauce is drizzled over them after roasting, your left with incredible flavours all over these carrots!
How Long To Roast Carrots?
It takes only 20 minutes to roast carrots, depending on your oven, to have a beautiful delicious pan of honey garlic butter roasted carrots on your weekday, weekend OR holiday table.
Season with a little extra salt and pepper after you’ve drizzled over the remaining sauce!
Flavour overload!

Yum! I didn’t add the parsley, and put it on an Indian Dal. Absolutely delicious. Crispy carrots, sweet and garlicky toppings and cooked just enough to soften the tender carrots. Added loads of salt and pepper for seasoning. I cooked a bit longer for my delicate teeth.
Karina says
Yes, that should work great! Just slowly warm it up so it doesn’t separate. Thanks so much for choosing one of my recipes! XO
Molly Webster says
This sounds fabulous. Can you make the sauce the day ahead and re-warm before using?
Thanks.
Karina says
That is great to hear! I am so glad that my site has been able to help you! Thank you for following along with me! XO

Usually I make heavy caloric and over the top side dishes. Lately I have been eating better and was looking for a healthy but savory side dish. This is my new go to for family events. Everyone loves it, requests it, and I can make it so quick, even grabbing the ingredients the day of.

Made this for meal prep this week! I’m a college student so I try to do huge batches of relatively simple and not too expensive dishes to eat throughout the week, and this was absolutely awesome. Reheats pretty well (had it for lunch just now!), sweet, simple & easy to make! I DEFINITELY recommend broiling it, it adds just a whole new level of flavor to an already awesome dish. Thank you Karina 😀
