Simple Air Fryer Carrots with Honey Glaze Recipe

Elevate your vegetable game with these delightful air fryer carrots, perfectly glazed with a touch of honey. This quick and easy side dish is not only vibrant and colourful but also packed with flavour, making it a fantastic addition to any meal.

To start, peel and trim around 500g of baby carrots, or you can use regular carrots cut into even-sized sticks for uniform cooking. Toss them in a bowl with a drizzle of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a dash of black pepper to enhance their natural sweetness.

Next, preheat your air fryer to 180°C (350°F) for a few minutes. Spread the coated carrots in a single layer in the air fryer basket, cooking them for approximately 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even browning.

Once they're tender and caramelised, remove them from the fryer and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of honey, stirring gently to coat each carrot. For an added touch, a sprinkle of fresh thyme or parsley will bring a lovely aroma and colour to the dish.

Serve your air fryer carrots warm as a simple yet stunning side dish that pairs beautifully with roasted meats or can stand alone as a delicious, healthy snack. Enjoy the perfect balance of sweetness and earthiness with minimal fuss!
