Equipment

  • 1 Air Fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 15 Medium Carrots
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter melted
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 3 Tablespoons Honey
  • 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • Fresh Parsley chopped (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Wash and peel all your carrots.
  • Slice the carrots into 1 ½ inch long pieces to ensure they cook evenly in the air fryer. For extra thick parts of the carrot, also slice them long ways to create two 1 ½ inch pieces. Place in a medium-sized bowl.
  • Melt butter in the microwave for 6-8 seconds.
  • Add olive oil, honey, and brown sugar to the melted butter and stir well until combined.
  • Pour glaze over the sliced carrots and stir well to coat all sides of the carrots.
  • Preheat your air fryer for 2 minutes at 370 degrees F.
  • Add the coated carrots to your air fryer basket in a single layer. Carrots shrink as they cook, so it is okay to have slight overlaps in the basket.
  • Air fry for 8 minutes. Then, shake the basket to rearrange the carrots. Drizzle any remaining leftover glaze on top of the carrots. Continue to air fry for 4 minutes.
  • Test the tenderness of the thickest carrot with a fork. If needed, add 2 minutes to achieve more tenderness.
  • Place the air-fried carrots into a serving dish and sprinkle with fresh parsley.
