Honey Balsamic Carrots

Ingredients

  • 1-2 lbs. carrots
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp each salt & pepper
  • 2 Tbsp honey
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp butter

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Clean the carrots, peel them, and cut them into 1-inch pieces, using a diagonal cut if you want them a little prettier.
  2. Line a baking sheet with foil. Spread the carrots on it, pour the olive oil over them, and season with the salt and pepper. Give everything a good toss so the carrots are coated.
  3. Roast the carrots for 40 minutes, stirring them 1 time halfway through.
  4. In the last 10 minutes that the carrots are in the oven, make the glaze. Add the balsamic vinegar and honey to a small pot, then simmer over medium heat for approximately 10 minutes, until the mixture has thickened.
  5. After the glaze thickens, take it off the heat and stir in the butter until it melts.
  6. When the carrots are done roasting, spoon the honey balsamic glaze over them and toss until coated. Serve warm.
