Crispy Parmesan Roasted Carrots with a hint of garlic take only 5 minutes to prep. Throw them in the oven for a delicious side dish!

Carrots get a huge make over with the addition of Panko breadcrumbs for added crunch. It’s so unbelievably easy to throw a handful of simple ingredients together — olive oil, garlic, parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle over some parsley and haveParmesan roasted carrots on your table in no time.

A deliciously easy vegetable side dish for your dinner menu or enjoy them as a snack!

ROASTED CARROTS

Roasted with a crispy saltiness on the outside, slightly carmelized on the edges and tender on the inside, these crispy garlic parmesan roasted carrots are super easy to make. With sweet and salty results, your entire family will love the flavour and will want them time and time again.

HOW DO I ROAST CARROTS IN THE OVEN?

Just a handful of steps for CRISPY parmesan roasted carrots of your dreams:

Arrange carrots on baking sheet.
Add the olive oil, garlic, parmesan, bread crumbs, salt and pepper.
Toss all ingredients together to completely coat the carrots.
Spread out and bake for 20-25 minutes or until tender.
Toss with a spatula half way through.

They take 20-25 minutes in the oven depending on thickness.

DO I HAVE TO PEEL THEM BEFORE ROASTING?

No, not at all. If leaving their skins on, just scrub them cleanto remove dirt. Of course, it’s personal preference!

We sometimes leave skins on if we’re rushed for time, however, I do prefer the taste of peeled carrots, especially in this parmesan roasted carrots recipe.

DO I HAVE TO BOIL BEFORE COOKING?

No. The beauty of this recipe is you throw all of the ingredients together on your baking sheet and let the oven do the work for you.

OK, no propane on hand for camper oven, but I threw the ingredients on the grill side of my electric cooker and at the last minute couldn’t resist adding some sliced breast meat that I carved from a Walmart roasted chicken and a few slices of pineapple for a complete stovetop roasted meal. Delicious! Thanks so much.

Although I am not a carrot fan; this was a quick and easy dish which tasted good. I chose to put it in for 25 minutes total for a little charred flavor. It was soft in twenty.

Love this quick easy side dish. Had for Sunday dinner and even the 9 & 7 year grandkids ate it! I cut the carrots a little smaller and threw in several whole cloves of garlic rather than mincing 1 or 2 and thus simplified the dish further. Cooked the carrots on the grill while our small oven was occupied with Yorkshire puddings. The carrots cooked in half the time and were delicious. Thanks for this recipe, it’ll be part of our reportoir from now on!

I know I’m late to the party, but your recipe popped up tonight when I was looking for a way to use up a bunch of carrots and parsnips. I had everything but the parmesan cheese, and they were still AWESOME! They got a slightly carmelized flavor along with crispy saltiness, so very good! Thanks for the recipe; it’s first on the favorites list now, for sure!

Can you use a baking dish instead of a baking sheet? It seems the baking dish would be easier.

When you say halved, should the carrots be halved lengthwise? I’m afraid with the carrots that I find in the grocery store, they aren’t petite and thin like from a garden- they’re more like orange cones, with one end being much larger than the other. Thanks so much, I love your recipes! They’re elegant and easy!

  Yes, I like to cut them in half long ways but you can always leave them as is just so they are all the same when baking. Hope you enjoy!

Looked good in the picture. I made this in a cast iron skillet, browning the carrots when they were soft. Too hot to use the oven. Delicious.
