Main Ingredients

  • 2 lbs rainbow carrots trimmed and scrubbed
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme chopped
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 8 oz burrata cheese
  • 0.5 cup pomegranate seeds

Garnish (Optional)

  • fresh mint chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, toss the carrots with olive oil, honey, fresh thyme, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

Cooking

  • Spread the seasoned carrots in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until tender-crisp and lightly caramelized.
  • Remove from oven and let cool slightly.

Assembling

  • Arrange the roasted carrots on a serving platter and tear the burrata cheese into pieces, scattering them among the carrots.
  • Sprinkle with pomegranate seeds and fresh mint (if using) before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of chili flakes to the carrots before roasting. Ensure the burrata is at room temperature for optimal creaminess.
