Preparation

How to prepare Baked Carrots

To prepare the baked carrots, first wash them thoroughly, then dry them with a clean dish towel 1. Trim the ends 2 and slice them in half lengthwise 3.

Shorten the length by cutting them in half 4 and gather them in a bowl. Season with oil 5, salt, and pepper 6.

Massage the sticks to coat them evenly. Place the carrots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure not to overlap them, add some sprigs of rosemary 8, and bake in a preheated static oven at 430°F for 40 minutes. Once cooked, garnish with more fresh rosemary. Your baked carrots are ready to be served 9!

Storage

Baked carrots can be stored in the refrigerator, in a sealed container, for 3 days. Before serving, you can reheat them in the oven at a low temperature or in the microwave to maintain their texture.

They can be frozen.

Tip

For an impressive side dish use colored carrots: orange, white, yellow, and purple will make this basic recipe more refined and original!

To make sweet and sour carrots, you can add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup at the end of cooking.
