Notes
Recipe Tips
- Oven Temperature - If you would like the edges to be crispy, increase the oven temperature to 425 for the last 5 minutes of cooking time.
- Use Fresh Carrots - Make sure to use firm carrots and not limp carrots. The fresher the better when making this recipe. Rainbow carrots taste great and look pretty in this recipe.
- Excess Moisture - Baby Carrots often have water in the bag and sometimes this leaves a residue. Make sure to remove any excess moisture and rinse the carrots before baking.
- Ranch Seasoning - We used Hidden Valley ranch seasoning mix but feel free to use store brand or anything you prefer.
Variations Ideas
- Glaze - You can easily make a glaze made of honey and brown sugar in a saucepan and pour over the carrots for an extra flavor of sweetness.
- Spices - You can easily use other types of seasoning for a delicious variation. Add fresh herbs such as thyme or rosemary.
