Ingredients

2 lbs carrots, cut on a bias into 2-inch thick slices
¼ cup maple syrup
4 tbsp butter
3 tbsp coconut sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ tsp fine sea salt
¾ tsp chili flakes *optional
½ tsp Maldon flaked sea salt *optional

Instructions

Start by preheating your oven to 400° and lining a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add the maple syrup, butter, sugar, garlic, salt, and chili flakes to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Simmer until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth.
Place the carrots onto the prepared baking sheet and pour the maple glaze mixture overtop. Stir well to coat the carrots.
Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, stirring the carrots every 8-10 minutes to make sure nothing burns. Once the carrots are fork-tender, they are ready.
Sprinkle with a pinch of flaked sea salt (optional) and serve warm.
