Looking to spruce up your carrots? Simply give them a coating of honey, olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper, then let the air fryer work its magic! Easy-peasy honey glazed carrots, coming right up!
3stalks fresh rosemary, for marinade + more for air frying and garnish
1teaspooncrushed sea salt flakes
black pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit, following the manufacturer's instructions, typically around 4-5 minutes.
Carrots. Wash the carrots and pat them dry with some paper towels. Trim the ends, making sure to remove the very thin parts as they tend to char quickly. Then, cut the carrots in half; mine were about 4 inches long and ¾ inch thick when sliced into strips.
1 pound regular carrots
Toss the carrots in a mix of honey, oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Let them sit for around 15-30 minutes to soak up those flavors. Lightly spray the air fryer basket with some oil and lay the carrots out in a single layer.
1 tablespoons of olive oil, 4 tablespoons honey, 1 teaspoon crushed sea salt flakes, black pepper to taste
Air fry for 12-15 minutes, giving the basket a shake halfway through a couple of times to ensure everything cooks evenly. I like to throw in 2-3 fresh rosemary stalks for an extra burst of flavor. Depending on the size of your air fryer basket, you may need to do this in 2-3 batches.
3 stalks fresh rosemary
Notes
To Store. For storing, pop those carrots into an airtight container in the fridge, but aim to use them within 1-2 days max.
To Reheat. When you're ready to reheat, use the air fryer at 375 degrees Fahrenheit or the oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit. No need to add any extra oil.
To Make Ahead. To save time, you can prep your carrots up to 2 days ahead of air frying. Just stash them in an airtight container in the fridge until you're ready to cook!
