Notes
- Carrots: You want all the carrots to be similar size and thickness, so they cook evenly. If any carrots are extra large/thick, cut them in quarters, or very thin carrots may be left whole. For baby carrots, roast for 18-20 minutes.
- Air Fryer Roasted Carrots: Cook at 400 degrees for 9-12 minutes
