Instructions

• Preheat Oven:

  Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Prepare Carrots:

  Spread the glazed carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the carrots are tender and caramelized, turning them halfway through for even cooking.
