Sweet and tender roasted carrots in a tasty maple dijon glaze.
Today I have a tasty and super easy side dish for you that is perfect for Easter, or any other dinner for that matter, some maple dijon roasted carrots. This isn’t your average maple dijon glaze as I have kicked it up with the addition of garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar and miso which really creates a beautiful blend of flavours that would be perfect on just about anything and in particular these tender roasted carrots! It requires very little active effort to make this side dish, you simply clean the carrots, mix the glaze, toss the carrot in the glaze and roast until tender. That’s less than 5 minutes of active time to create a fabulous side dish for your meal! I like to toss the carrots in the glaze both before roasting and after so that you get that nice caramelized glaze from the roasting and the fresh glaze to brighten the flavour. If you are looking for a side dish for your Easter meal you can’t go wrong with these maple dijon roasted carrots!
Just look at that amazing glistening maple dijon glaze.
Maple Dijon Roasted Carrots
Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 25 minutes Total Time: 30 minutes Servings: 6
Sweet and tender roasted carrots in a tasty maple dijon glaze.
ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots, well scrubbed or peeled
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 tablespoon grainy mustard
- 1/2 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1/2 tablespoon white miso paste (gluten-free for gluten-free)
- 1/2 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 small clove garlic, grated
- 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (optional)
directions
- Toss the carrots in half of the mixture of the oil, maple syrup, mustards, miso, vinegar, soy sauce and garlic, arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated 400F/200C oven until tender and lightly golden brown, about 20-30 minutes, turning half way through, before tossing them in the remaining glaze and serving.
Note: You want young carrots, the ones with the leaves still on, and you want them to be thin, about 3/4 of an inch or less, so that they roast quickly.
Note: You should be able to find the miso in the Asian section of grocery stores and if you cannot find it simply omit it and these carrots will still be amazing!

I don't have miso paste. Would these turn out good without that? Or is there some sub I could use for it?
Looks very yummy.

Extra soy sauce and additional salt would work in place of miso…the recipe uses so little shouldnt make a noticeable difference..

Very tasty Kevin! Had the whole family over for dinner and everyone really enjoyed them. It made a nice presentation too! Pretty easy to make with little fuss. I lined my baking sheet with aluminum foil, sprayed it with non-stick spray and it made for an easy clean up. I did double the glaze, because I just wanted to pull them out, flip them over and spoon the second step of glaze over them for convenience. I will definitely be making these again. Thank you for a tasty way to experience carrots!

These look amazing, but I don't have maple syrup. I have honey. Do you think that would work? I really want to make these for Easter dinner.

What kind of oil should be used?
Reply
kevin says
Kerri Troyan: Vegetable oil is good.

Unknown says
I avoid refined oils in my diet. Would replacing the oil with water work in this recipe? Or do you have a different suggestion such as using more of another liquid ingredient?
Reply
kevin says
Unknown: The oil is kind of essential here for the roasting but you can remove the oil from the part that you toss the carrots in after roasting.

What is sprinkled over the carrots? Parsley? I don’t see it listed in the ingredients or the instructions.

That is a parsley garnish that adds to the presentation! Enjoy!

I’ve made these several times…..delish!!! It was requested that I bring them to Thanksgiving this year. I couldn’t find any young rainbow carrots – had to get full size (Adult?) rainbow carrots instead. 🤞🏼🤞🏼 They they are just as good!!
