Ingredients
Equipment
Steps
- 1
Peel carrots and halve any thick ones so all pieces are similar thickness.
- 2
Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- 3
Air fry at 390°F for 12-15 minutes, shaking once, until tender and caramelized on the edges.
- 4
Toss with honey, melted butter, and thyme while hot.
- 5
Finish with flaky salt and parsley.
Tip: Thinner carrots cook faster — halve the thick ones so everything finishes together. The natural sugars in carrots make them caramelize beautifully. Toss the glaze on while hot so it melts and coats evenly.
