Receta de zanahorias asadas al sirope de arce

Ingredientes

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted and slightly cooled)
• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar (or coconut sugar)
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 pounds carrots (rainbow, baby carrots, or regular carrots would all work)

Preparación

1. 1

   Prep equipment: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.

2. 2

   Make the glaze: In a measuring cup, whisk together butter, maple syrup, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, salt, and pepper.

3. 3

   Prep carrots: Rinse and peel (or scrub) carrots and cut them into 2-inch pieces. If they are too large, cut them in half lengthwise. Transfer them onto the prepared sheet pan.

4. 4

   Coat carrots with glaze: Pour the maple syrup glaze mixture over the carrots. Toss to make sure that carrots are fully coated with the glaze. Spread them so that they are in a single layer.

5. 5

   Bake: Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, making sure to give them a toss halfway through the baking process until they are fork-tender. To test doneness, insert a paring knife into one of the larger carrots. If it comes in and out easily, it should be ready.

6. 6

   Cool and serve: Let them cool for 5-10 minutes, transfer them to a platter, and serve.
