Parmesan Roasted Carrots are roasted in the oven with butter and garlic until tender and sprinkled with lots of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Arenโ€™t they gorgeous! Theyโ€™d go great with pork or chicken and theyโ€™d make a healthy side for Easter.

Parmesan Roasted Carrots

Iโ€™ve always preferred raw carrots over cooked carrots, but boy are these Parmesan Roasted Carrots ever good!

They are savory but sweet. I love that the natural sweetness of carrots comes out even more when they are roasted.

I buy a bunch of carrots that still have the green tips on them. They look so pretty.  ๐Ÿ™‚

I peel the carrots and cut each one in half horizontally so they cook faster, but I like to leave them long. You could cut them into 2 to 3 inch pieces if you wanted to.

For easy clean-up, cover the baking sheet with parchment paper.
