Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb carrots about 907 g, peeled, cut to a thickness under ½ inch
  • 1 lb thin-sliced bacon
  • ¼ cup maple syrup

Method
 

  1. Set oven temperature to 400°F (205°C).
  2. Take one bacon slice and coil it snugly around a carrot, beginning at the thicker end; do not let the bacon strips overlap.
  3. Place the bacon-wrapped carrots onto a wire rack positioned above a baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 25 minutes, or until the bacon reaches a crisp texture and the carrots become tender.
  5. Take out of the oven and brush maple syrup over every side with care.
  6. Continue baking for another 8–10 minutes.
  7. Plate and serve.
