✨ Maple-Glazed Bacon-Wrapped Carrots 🥕🥓
Ingredients:
2 pounds small, peeled carrots
1 pound thin-sliced bacon
¼ cup maple syrup
Instructions:
Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wrap the carrots: Take one slice of bacon and tightly wrap it around each carrot, starting at the thicker end. Ensure the bacon layers do not overlap too much for even cooking.
Bake the carrots: Place the wrapped carrots on a wire rack placed on top of a baking sheet to allow for even cooking. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the carrots are tender.
Glaze with maple syrup: Remove the carrots from the oven and carefully brush them with maple syrup on all sides.
Finish baking: Return the carrots to the oven for an additional 8-10 minutes, allowing the glaze to caramelize.
Serve: Once done, serve the maple-glazed bacon-wrapped carrots warm and enjoy this sweet and savory treat!
