The Best Roasted Carrots
  1. Preheat the oven or air fryer to 400°F.

  2. In a large bowl, add the carrots and all the remaining ingredients. With clean hands, toss until all the carrots are coated in the seasoned oil. You'll have some leftover so set that aside for the finishing touch.

  3. Roast in one of two ways: Oven: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the oiled carrots on it in a single layer. Once the oven or air fryer is heated, place on the center rack. Bake for 50 minutes for medium carrots and up to 10-15 minutes longer if they’re larger. Regardless of size, after 30 minutes of baking, check on the carrots by sticking a fork in one. If they’re soft and tender, they’re done. If not, bake for 10 minutes more or until fork tender.

  4. Air Fryer: Place the oiled carrots on it in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Bake for 20-30 minutes for smaller carrots and up to 5-10 minutes if they’re larger. Regardless of size, after 20 minutes of baking, check on the carrots by sticking a fork in one. If they’re soft and tender, they’re done. If not, bake for 10 minutes more or until fork tender.

  5. Brush the remaining seasoned oil onto the carrots. Let cool for 5-10 minutes and serve topped with more salt and pepper, if desired.
