These balsamic roasted carrots are so easy to make. Caramelized carrots are tossed with sweet balsamic vinegar for a carrot side dish that is simple and flavorful!
Preheat the oven to 400°F and spray a large baking pan with nonstick spray. Cut 2 pounds carrots into 2-inch pieces. If they are thicker carrots, cut in half again. Place the vegetables into a bowl or directly onto the baking sheet.
Drizzle 1 1/2 Tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle 3/4 salt evenly over top. Then toss to evenly combine. Add an extra Tablespoon of oil if needed.
Roast for about 15 minutes, or until they begin to soften. Flip vegetables and then bake an additional 15 minutes or until fork tender. During the last 5 minutes, drizzle 2 Tablespoons balsamic over top and toss together. Roast carrots until most of the vinegar has evaporated, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve while warm. Salt and pepper to taste.
