Spiced Roasted Carrots

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds carrots
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 to 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder (use less for more mild carrots, or the full amount for spicy carrots)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Peel carrots and cut them on the diagonal so each piece is about 1/2-inch thick at the widest part.
  3. Place the carrots on the baking sheet. Add the olive oil, chili powder, cinnamon, salt and a few twists of pepper.
  4. Toss until the carrots are lightly coated in oil and seasonings and arrange them in a single layer.
  5. Roast until they’re caramelized on the edges and easily pierced through by a fork, 25 to 40 minutes, tossing halfway.
