Air fryer roasted moroccan baby carrots

Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450g) baby carrots
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp ground ginger
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
• 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Carrots: Wash and dry the baby carrots. If they’re thicker, slice them in half lengthwise for even cooking.
2. Mix the Spices: In a small bowl, combine cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, cinnamon, ground ginger, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper.
3. Coat the Carrots: Toss the carrots in olive oil, then sprinkle the spice mixture over them. Add honey or maple syrup and toss to ensure they’re evenly coated.
4. Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes.
5. Cook the Carrots: Place the seasoned carrots in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized.
6. Finish and Serve: Remove the carrots from the air fryer and toss with lemon juice. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm.
