Hot Honey Roasted Carrots

Hopping on the Hot Honey trend by making Hot Honey Roasted Carrots!

Oh yes! You definitely want to make these!

So simple, yet an absolute culinary delight!

Imagine tender, caramelized roasted carrots, infused with the subtle warmth of hot honey, perfectly balanced between sweet and spicy. The natural sweetness of the carrots is elevated by the rich, sticky hot honey, while a hint of heat from the hot sauce leaves a really nice tingle on the taste buds.

The roasting process brings out the carrots’ natural depth of flavor.

Our simple hot honey glaze adds a sticky, syrupy texture, coating each bite with a flavorful kick.

With each crisp bite, the sweetness of the carrots and the spiciness of the hot honey meld together in perfect harmony, leaving you craving more of this HEALTHY mouthwatering, sweet, and spicy treat!

Why is Hot Honey so popular on EVERYTHING right now?

✔️It adds the ideal sweet and spicy flavor combination to food.
✔️It tastes good on almost anything! From chicken to pancakes…and in this case, roasted carrots!
✔️ Its unique flavor is a combination of sweet honey and spicy chili peppers.
✔️ It’s a healthier alternative to other sweet condiments that contain refined sugar.
✔️ It’s a FUN choice for foodies who are looking to try new flavors.
✔️That Sweet & Spicy combo is incredible.

🔥You can add more or less hot sauce, depending on your own heat/spice preferences.

Tabasco sauce works great for the hot sauce portion because it contains minimal ingredients. I’ve recently tried Siete brand hot sauces and like those too! Use YOUR favorite hot sauce, then add more or less depending on what you like.

Some Carrot facts if you care:

These party platter favorites are one of the most nutritious veggies out there as they are loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.

🧡They may help fight cancer, lower your blood pressure, keep your immune system strong, help your bones stay healthy, AND help protect your vision.

Fun Fact: If you eat more than 10 medium-sized carrots a day for a few weeks straight, you’ll build up too much beta-carotene in your body and develop a condition called carotenemia … and your skin will start to turn orange!

Carrots are great in soups, salads, stews, stir-fries, and casseroles. You can eat them raw, steamed, roasted, baked, and even juiced.

How often do you eat carrots? (Hopefully you’re not eating 10 of them every day!)

6 servings

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs small or mini carrots, peeled or scrubbed well
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
  • 2 Tbsps Arrowroot powder, cornstarch, or gluten-free flour
  • 4 Tbsps raw honey or pure maple syrup
  • 3 Tbsps grass-fed butter, ghee, or organic unrefined coconut oil, melted
  • 2 Tbsps hot sauce of choice
  • fresh Italian parsley, chopped, to garnish

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees f.

Peel your carrots and slice them in half if they are thick (I kept the smaller ones whole).

Place your prepared carrots into a large parchment paper lined sheet pan or baking dish.

Sprinkle with sea salt, pepper, to taste and Arrowroot/cornstarch. Toss to coat well.

Drizzle your carrots with the honey, melted butter, and hot sauce.

Use your clean hands or tongs to toss very well to get all the carrots nicely coated.

Spread them out in a single layer and roast for 15-20 minutes in your preheated oven, or just until fork tender and beginning to nicely caramelize on the outside.

Depending on the size of your carrots, roasting time will vary slightly.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and enjoy while hot!
