Maple-roasted Carrots

Ingredients

2 lbs. whole carrots, multicolored if available
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (can also try truffle oil for added flavor!)
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
salt and pepper to taste
fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for serving, optional

Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Place carrots on a baking sheet (use a baking sheet with sides so oil does not drip off).

Drizzle olive oil over carrots, tossing by hand (or use pastry brush) to help distribute evenly. 

Repeat with maple syrup.
Add salt and pepper as desired.
Roast for 20 minutes or until fork slides in easily.
Serve with fresh parsley or other herbs if desired.

Recipe Notes
A serving is roughly 2 carrots.
