Spice Roasted Carrots

i went to Costco this afternoon and bought 10 lbs of carrots. my first goal tonight was to find a new cooked carrot recipe- & this was my favorite! i can’t wait to try it!

1 bunch carrots, peeled (approximately 1 pound)
1 tablespoon, extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon pomegranate molasses
Sliced mint for garnish (or basil or both)

Preheat oven to 425ºF (225ºC). Cut carrots in half lengthwise. Cut halves in half to create quarters if carrots are thicker. Toss carrots with olive oil, cumin, cayenne, coriander, and salt and pepper.

Roast for 10 minutes, flip carrots, and roast for another 5 minutes.

Toss carrots with pomegranate molasses (or 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar) and roast for another 5 minutes until golden. Toss with mint and/or basil and serve.
