How to Make Maple Roasted Carrots
Preparing and Baking the Carrots
To make these baked carrots, start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees.
Wash your carrots and chop any larger ones in half, getting them all the same size as best as you can. Place on a baking tray covered in parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Mix together your maple syrup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, soy sauce, oil, rice vinegar, salt and pepper and whisk until smooth.
Drizzle half the mixture over your carrots and toss them to coat evenly.
Bake for 20-35 minutes, or until tender when poked with a fork. If your carrots are not all the same size, you may want to remove the smaller ones when they’re done while you wait for the larger ones to be tender.
Dressing and Serving the Carrots
Let the carrots cool slightly, then toss in the remaining sauce and arrange on a serving dish.
I like to alternate the carrots so the ends are on both sides and they sit nicely on the dish.
Mix together your tahini sauce and generously drizzle over carrots. Add chopped parsley and pistachios and dig in!
I also served mine with some whole parsley stems and leaves, I loved how it looked!
Vegan Maple Dijon Baked Carrots
I love baked carrots, but they have to have that sweet and tart balance in my opinion.
Too much maple or brown sugar and they turn into a dessert, so adding some tangy or tart flavors creates the most irresistible vegetable dish.
Baked to perfection and easy to grab and munch on, these carrots are as good as they get!
