Oven-Roasted Carrot Breakfast Delight

Ingredients

- 6 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (205°C) to allow it to fully heat before starting with the carrots.
2. Prepare the Carrots: In a large bowl, toss the carrot pieces with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.
3. Season and Roast: Spread the seasoned carrots on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for about PT20M, or 20 minutes, until they start to soften.
4. Add Sweetness and Spice: In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon, honey, and melted butter. Drizzle this mixture over the carrots and gently toss to coat them evenly.
5. Continue Roasting: Return the carrots to the oven and roast for another PT10M, 10 minutes, until they are caramelized and fork-tender.
6. Incorporate Textures: Sprinkle the walnuts over the carrots during the last 5 minutes of roasting to toast them lightly and bring out their flavor.
7. Assemble the Dish: Remove the dish from the oven once done and let it cool slightly. Transfer to a serving platter.
8. Finish with Freshness: Top the roasted carrots with crumbled feta and sprinkle with fresh parsley for added flavor and garnish.
