Brown Sugar Glazed Carrots

Print Recipe

A super quick and easy recipe for roasted carrots glazed with brown sugar, butter, garlic, and olive oil, resulting in soft, caramelized edges and a deliciously sweet glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 kg / 2 lb carrots, peeled
  • 1/4 cup (40g) brown sugar, loosely packed
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp butter (30g), melted (or olive oil)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 220C/425F (standard) or 200C/400F (fan).
  2. Cut carrot on the diagonal into 4cm / 1.75” lengths. Halve thicker end so they are all roughly the same width.
  3. Toss in a bowl with sugar, butter, garlic, oil, salt and pepper. Pour onto tray, spread out.
  4. Roast 15 minutes. Toss, then roast a further 10 minutes until soft and caramelised on the edges with plenty of glaze left on the tray.
  5. Toss carrots in the glaze, sprinkle with parsley if using. Serve warm.

Notes

Roasting the carrots brings out their natural sweetness and creates caramelized edges that enhance the glaze. Use fresh garlic for best flavor and adjust seasoning to taste.
