Air Fryer Carrots are naturally sweet, salty, and crunchy – the perfect fry substitute! This honey glazed carrots recipe is SO easy to make!

Ingredients

  • 1 pound carrots ((see Notes if using baby carrots))
  • 1 tablespoons olive oil (or more if needed (See Notes))
  • 3 tablespoons honey (liquid type)
  • 5 sprigs fresh rosemary leaves ((3 for marinade), additional for air frying and garnish)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (plus more for serving, if desired)
  • black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. 1

    Wash and dry the carrots, and peel if desired. Trim the ends (most of the very thin part should be cut off as it will char and burn very quickly). Cut medium size carrots in half lengthwise (larger ones in fourths). Mine came up to about 4 inches long and 3/4 inch thick strips.

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, toss the carrots in oil, honey, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Set aside to marinate for 20-35 minutes.

  3. 3

    Preheat the air fryer to 375° F according to manufacturer instructions. (It takes 5 minutes in a Cosori 5.8 quart air fryer.)

  4. 4

    Once the air fryer is preheated, spray the basket lightly with oil (or use an air fryer basket liner). Transfer half of the carrots into the basket, and top with some fresh rosemary leaves.

  5. 5

    Air fry for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through a couple of times to ensure even frying. Remove cooked carrots and air fry the remaining carrots. (You’ll need to fry in 2-3 batches, depending on the size of your air fryer. It took 2 batches with my Cosori 5.8 quart air fryer.)

  6. 6

    The carrots should be crispy, lightly golden brown and cooked through. Enjoy as, is or with dipping sauces.
