Sweet, savory, earthy, buttery, and ready in just 15 minutes. Maple Glazed Roasted Carrots make a great side dish or Thanksgiving veggie dish.
This Fall recipe is warm and comforting. Add mashed potatoes or a big green salad for a healthy dinner.
This was inspired by my favorite culinary holiday, Thanksgiving. I just love this time of year when the family gets together and shares their favorite food. My family makes the best vegetable dishes and this is one of my go-tos.

Hint: If you cut the carrots in half lengthwise they cook faster and taste sweeter. Also, If you are going to make this for Thanksgiving, you might want to double the recipe.
Substitutions
If you know how to make the recipe fit a certain diet, let the reader know here. Don't fake it - only provide guidance on topics you have actual experience with.
- Butter - I love a blend of toasted sesame oil and olive oil. You can also use regular butter.
- Maple Syrup - honey works well in place of maple syrup.
- Everything Spice - this is a recipe I shared recently. It's my favorite seasoning blend that I use for almost everything. If you don't have it made, just sub onion powder.
