Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb. carrots sliced diagonally into ½” pieces
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 1 tbsp honey plus more for garnish

For serving (optional)

  • 1 cup plain yogurt optional
  • ⅓ cup pistachios chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Add the carrots, olive oil and salt to a bowl and toss to combine, then pour the carrots onto the baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Meanwhile, make the honey butter: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds, then remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the honey.
  • To serve: Add the yogurt to a large plate or platter, then scoop the carrots over top. Pour the honey butter over the carrots, then sprinkle everything with the pistachios. Add an extra drizzle of honey (optional), a pinch of salt and enjoy!

Notes

NOTE: Serve the carrots right away with the yogurt; if making ahead of time, wait to add the yogurt until ready to serve.
