During the cold-weather months, I usually roast my carrots in the oven, as in these Maple-Glazed Carrots, but in the summer, I prefer grilling. I'm sharing a recipe for four servings, but you can make this for as many people as you have gathered around the table.

I have a pan with holes just like that! I can't wait to pop carrots on the grill next time we fire up the charcoal barbecue. They look so good with the little charredy bits.
ReplyDeleteOur favorite way to have them during grilling season
DeleteI don't have a grill anymore, but if I did, I'd try this out. Hmmm, and now that I think on it, I do have a spaetzle maker and I bet I can do this in the air fryer.
ReplyDeleteYou can certainly use an air fryer.
DeleteGrilling always brings out the best flavors in veggies, especially carrots. I bet everyone eats their veggies when these are on the plate.
