Cooking Steps

1
1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Trim the green tops from the baby carrots and scrub them clean (halve any thick carrots lengthways).

Place the carrots on a lined oven tray and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Arrange in a single layer and roast until tender, 25-30 minutes.

While the carrots are roasting, pick the thyme leaves. When the carrots are tender, remove the tray from the oven and add the thyme and pepitas and toss to coat. Bake until the pepitas are toasted, about 5 minutes.

TIP: Hold each thyme sprig at the top, then gently run your fingers down to remove the leaves. If the sprigs are very soft, you can just chop them instead.

Transfer the roasted baby carrots to a serving dish and sprinkle with the thyme and pepitas. Drizzle with some balsamic glaze to serve.
