Thyme Roasted Carrots

Thyme Roasted Carrots

This takes almost no time to prep, and leaves you free to make the rest of dinner while they’re roasting away!

1-2 pounds carrots, left whole if thumb-width or smaller, cut in half if larger

1 ½ T. olive oil

1 ½ tsp. fresh thyme leaves

1 ½ T. butter

salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Toss carrots, olive oil and thyme in a large bowl.

Place on roasting pan and dot with butter.

Roast until slightly caramelized and tender when pierced with a knife. The tips will develop a lovely, caramel taste and color, while the fatter ends will be lighter.
