Ingredients

1 lb carrots
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt & Pepper

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Peel the carrots and cut them into evenly sized sticks, about 3 to 4 inches long and ½ inch thick.
Line a large baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup, if desired, and lightly coat it with nonstick cooking spray.
Place the carrots on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Toss until the carrots are evenly coated.
Spread the carrots into a single layer, making sure they are not overlapping.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the carrots are tender and lightly browned around the edges.
Serve immediately while warm.
