  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the honey-coated carrots in a single layer.

Notes

For a delightful alternative, consider using maple syrup instead of honey. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for one month. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes.
