Maple and Thyme Roasted Carrots

Maple and Thyme Roasted Carrots- sweet, sticky roasted carrots with thyme. Delicious as a side dish to your roast dinner.

I made Maple and Thyme Roasted Carrots to go along with dinner this week. Carrots are hands-down my favourite vegetable because they are so versatile. Grated on a salad? Cut into sticks and dip into houmous? Roasted? Boiled? Put them in a cake? All good. They also complement a lot of different flavours and are especially good when a little extra sweetness is added to them.

These Maple and Thyme Roasted Carrots have that sweet edge to them from the maple syrup, complemented by the garlic and the thyme. When you roast them and they caramelise slightly, they taste even better! If you don't have maple syrup to hand (we've still got some of the really good stuff from our holiday in Canada), then you can easily substitute it with honey.

I served the carrots as an accompaniment to Lime and Ginger Turkey Steaks along with some new potatoes. They would also make a great side dish for Christmas dinner along with Brussell Sprout Hash.

Give them a try next time you cook a roast dinner!
