Can I make this recipe vegan?
Absolutely! Just swap out the honey for a plant-based alternative like maple syrup or agave nectar. The carrots will still have that beautiful caramelised sweetness.
Do I have to peel the carrots?
Not at all! If you’re short on time, just give them a good scrub. The skin adds a rustic touch and holds up well when roasted.
Can I use dried thyme instead of fresh?
Yes, dried thyme works perfectly! Use about half the amount as fresh thyme since dried herbs are more concentrated. I personally love a combination of both for added depth.
What do I need to make this recipe?
- Dutch carrots
- Fresh or dried thyme
- Celtic sea salt
