Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and generously coat your baking dish (or baking sheet) with the softened butter.
In a medium mixing bowl, toss the sliced carrots with the warmed honey, brown sugar, fresh herbs (thyme and rosemary), and salt & pepper. Transfer to your baking dish and spread evenly in the dish.
Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 20-25 minutes, stirring the carrots twice during the cooking time to roast the carrots evenly. Roasted carrots should have slightly browned edges, and will be tender when forked.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
Notes
*If you like your carrots extra soft, continue to oven roast until they have reached your desired level of tenderness.*If using a baking sheet, the carrots will be spread in a thinner layer and be roasted fully in a shorter amount of time, so adjust your cooking time as needed.
Be sure to butter the baking dish very generously to prevent sticking and add to the flavor.
