# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • Honey turns ordinary carrots into something that tastes like it came from a restaurant kitchen
  • The caramelized edges create this incredible sweetness that even vegetable skeptics cant resist
02 -
  • Overcrowding the pan will steam your carrots instead of roasting them
  • Stirring halfway through is what creates those caramelized edges on multiple sides
03 -
  • Cut your carrots into similar sizes so they finish roasting at the same time
  • Let the sheet pan cool slightly before transferring to prevent sticking
