Arrange the carrots in a single layer in a shallow baking dish. (2 minutes)

03

04

Step

06

Step
20 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized, approximately 20 minutes.

For a deeper flavor, try using brown sugar instead of white sugar.
Add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup during the last 5 minutes of baking for a richer glaze.
Feel free to experiment with other spices like ginger, cloves, or allspice.
For even cooking, make sure the carrots are roughly the same size.
