Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Remove the green fronds on the carrots if they are still attached. Peel the carrots and nip the ends off each carrot. We like to leave the large head of the carrot on because it looks cool, but by all means, cut it off if you prefer.
Lay carrots in a single layer on a large sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Toss carrots to make sure they are evenly coated. Roast carrots in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they reach your desired tenderness.
Optional - For a special treat, grate a small finger of peeled, fresh ginger into a little warmed maple syrup. Drizzle over carrots and roast. Yum!
