Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 pounds baby carrots
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dry dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Optional Garnishes

  • Top with chopped fresh parsley if desired

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place carrots in a large bowl and toss with olive oil. Then add the dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, dry dill, salt and pepper until coated with mixture.
  • Evenly distribute the carrots on baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender but still slightly crisp. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, if desired.

Notes

  • If using farmer's market baby carrots, cut them in half lengthwise before combining with spices and roasting.
  • For less clean up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper and roast carrots on parchment paper.
  • Since baby carrots are stored in water, you may want to strain them or dry them off a little bit before tossing them in olive oil. This will allow the oil to coat the carrots instead of being washed away.
  • Choose the right pan. A rimmed baking sheet or half sheet pan is the easiest way to make this easy recipe. A cookie sheet is prone to spills, and a casserole dish is too deep. 
  • The roasting process starts the second your sweet carrots enter the oven. Make sure you're using a hot oven that's already fully preheated.
