Honey Roasted carrots

From Epicurious, heavily adapted by me:

INGREDIENTS

    • 3 to 4 bunches (depending on size) fresh carrots, peeled
    • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    • 2 tablespoons honey
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste


PREPARATION

    1. 1. Preheat the oven to 425°:F.
    2. 2. Cut the carrots- in thirds, and then crosswise on a sharp diagonal or into sticks. Just make sure the pieces are roughly the same size
    3. 3. Toss with the oil, honey, salt and pepper. (I used a ziplock bag to coat it all really well)
    4. 4. Place the carrots on a baking sheet lined with foil in a single layer and bake for 20-25 minutes (depending on how big the carrot pieces). Stir/shake halfway through baking. Adjust the seasonings and remove to a serving bowl.

Notes from Jill's Kitchen: once again, more a technique than anything. I sort of used an idea from Wegmans, but I used only carrots and a lot less honey. I used a bag of colored carrots from Legman's (man I love that store) and it turned out really well! They were almost like brown sugar glazed carrots (which Sam love), but with no butter and a lot less sugar.
