Ingredients

  • 14 oz HEB Whole Carrot Sticks drained*
  • 2 Tablespoons (32g) Olive Oil
  • 2-3 cloves (10g) Garlic crushed with 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Parsley Flakes
  • ½ teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes**
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • ¼ cup (30g) Grated Parmesan
  • ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 425ºF and line a half sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Drain the carrot sticks and pat dry with a paper towel. Set aside.
  • Finely mince the garlic and sprinkle the salt over the top. Drag the flat of a knife across to crush the garlic before adding to the olive oil with the parsley flakes, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Stir well.

  • Add the dried carrot sticks to the oil and toss to evenly coat before adding the grated parmesan and garlic powder. Toss or stir until the carrot sticks are evenly coated in the parmesan cheese.

  • Add the carrots to the sheet pan, leaving space between each carrot stick. Bake for 25 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes until crispy.

Notes

*If you don't have access to HEB, cut 3-4 peeled carrots into 3-4" carrot sticks.
**For the spice sensitive, reduce the red pepper flakes to a pinch or omit altogether.

For Air Fried Carrot Sticks

Using our air fryer carrot fries recipe as a guide, 16-20 minutes at 350ºF (shaking halfway through) in a 6.5 quart air fryer does the trick. This recipe makes a slightly larger batch, so you may need to extend the cook time or cook in batches for extra crispy carrot sticks.
