Ingredients

▢ 1 ½ lbs baby carrots - or chopped regular carrots
▢ ¼ cup salted butter - melted
▢ ⅓ cup brown sugar
▢ 1 tsp cinnamon - optional
▢ ½ tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
In a large bowl, stir together ¼ cup melted salted butter, ⅓ cup brown sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, and ½ tsp salt until combined.
Pat 1½ lbs baby carrots dry with a paper towel, then add them to the bowl and toss until evenly coated in the brown sugar butter mixture.
Spread the coated carrots onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer so they roast evenly.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the carrots are tender when pierced with a fork.
Transfer the roasted carrots to a serving dish and spoon any extra glaze from the pan over the top before serving.
