Peel carrots or leave them with skin on: this is personal preference. You’ll need a rimmed baking sheet, carrots, oil, and seasonings. Give the ingredients a toss in a mixing bowl, add them to the baking sheet and roast them until they’re tender and a bit caramelized.

Tips for perfect roasted carrots
Cut the carrots evenly: if carrots are cut unevenly (with some thick and others thin) they won’t roast evenly and you’ll end up with some that are burnt and others that aren’t cooked all the way.
