Ingredients

Veggies

1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into sticks

Oil

2 tablespoons olive oil

Sauce

2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Spices

Salt and pepper to taste

Toppings (optional)

Fresh parsley for garnish Optional garnish

Instructions

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Add the carrot sticks to the bowl and toss until each piece is evenly coated with the glaze.
Spread the carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Cooking

Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and browned at the edges.
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

Cut carrots into even sticks for uniform roasting and texture. Don’t overcrowd the pan; give pieces space to brown. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Make extra glaze to drizzle on reheated carrots.
