Is there anything better than an oven-roasted veggie? Or oven-roasted anything, really. The extra caramelized layer of flavor that’s added by roasting food in the oven just can’t be beat by any other cooking methods. Need convincing? Just try my Roasted Garlic, Roasted Tomato Soup, or Roasted Potatoes! These Roasted Carrots are just another example of how fabulous roasting is. The carrots are seasoned with the perfect blend of spices, then roasted with oil and butter until they’re perfectly soft and slightly caramelized. Oh, and they take just 5 minutes to prep!
Ingredients Needed:
Carrots: I use large, fresh carrots peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch chunks. You can also use baby carrots but the cook time may need to be adjusted. Oil: whatever oil you have on hand is great! Something with a high smoke point and neutral flavor. Salted Butter: unsalted will work too, but you may need to add a little extra salt yourself. Seasonings: we’re seasoning the carrots with a blend of dried parsley, salt, garlic powder, dried thyme, and black pepper.

Tips and Notes for Oven Roasted Carrots
Line the baking sheet. This is optional, but does make cleanup super easy! Flip halfway through. We want both sides of the carrot slices to be exposed to the heat so they’re evenly cooked. Don’t swap the garlic powder. I don’t recommend swapping the garlic powder for fresh garlic. Fresh garlic can easily burn in the oven.
Serving Suggestions
These roasted carrots are so versatile; you can serve them with literally any of your favorite entrees! I love to serve them alongside Creamy Garlic Chicken, Air Fryer Meatloaf, or Baked Pork Chops!
