How to make perfect garlic roasted carrots
Making a great roasted carrot recipe is simple! It only takes a few simple steps. For the full recipe, make sure you scroll down to the recipe card below.
Prep work
- Preheat the oven to 400 F.
- Get out a baking dish large enough to hold your carrots in mostly a single layer.
Season carrots
- In the baking dish, whisk together the water, oil, salt and pepper.
- Toss in the garlic cloves and carrots and toss to coat with the liquid.
- Dice the butter up into small pieces and place over the carrots.
Baking the carrots
- Tent with foil to keep the steam in. This will help to cook the carrots tender without browning them too much.
- Roast for 30 minutes.
- Remove the foil and roast for an additional 30 minutes, or until the water has evaporated and the carrots are lightly brown in spots.
- Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy!
Do you peel carrots before roasting?
That is entirely up to you! You do not need to peel them as long as you give them a good scrub before you roast them.

I did roasted broccoli with our valentine's dinner. It was really delicious! Can't wait to try this recipe too.
I love the colour!
Looks great 🙂
They sound great. I too have discovered that adding garlic to roasted things makes them more delicious. Next time you make roast lamb, try poking holes in it with a knife and put slivers of garlic in the holes. It'll melt in your mouth!
I agree, Ness! Garlic + Anything = Awesome! 🙂
Roasted vegetables are the best and I really enjoy the combination of carrots and ginger.
Never would've guessed how delicious these were until I made them myself. So good! I'll check out the broccoli next.
Oh, I am so glad you liked them!!
