Roasted Carrots with Nut Butter
Adapted from Oh She Glows.com
Ingredients:
- 8 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-2 inch pieces/
- 3 tbsp natural nut butter – almond, tahini or peanut butter work well (I used 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter, regular works too but I prefer natural)
- 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1.5 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt, or to taste
- 1/2 tsp fresh ground pepper
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Peel and cut carrots into desired sized pieces.
- In a another bowl, mix together the nut butter, olive oil, soy sauce pepper and salt.
- Mix carrots in bowl until fully coated with the peanutty mixture.
- Spread on the baking pan in one layer and cook at 400F for 30-50 minutes until crisp. So good.
- Eat and entire pan of cooked carrots and surprise yourself!
