Ingredients
- 6 medium pieces carrots
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
Step 2
Peel the carrots and cut them into evenly sized sticks, approximately 3-4 inches long and 1/4 inch thick.
Step 3
Place the carrot sticks in a large bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the carrots and toss again to ensure they're evenly coated.
Step 5
Spread the seasoned carrot sticks out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they aren’t overlapping to allow for even roasting.
Step 6
Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping the carrots halfway through, until they are tender and lightly caramelized on the edges.
Step 7
Remove the carrots from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as a snack, appetizer, or side dish. Enjoy!
