Maple Tahini Carrots are the perfect side to serve at your next dinner party. Quick and easy to make these carrots come together in just 30 minutes. The bitterness of the tahini with the sweetness of the maple syrup and the saltiness of the miso paste make the Maple Tahini glaze the perfect way to top off these carrots.
If you’re looking for a show-stopping dish around the holidays, Maple Tahini Carrots are a favourite of ours. The multi-coloured carrots, drizzled with the caramel-colour dressing, topped with a generous sprinkling of pomegranate seeds, these carrots are a festive dish. Multi-coloured carrots aren’t always easy to find, so if orange is all you’ve got not to worry. They’ll taste the same and still look just as beautiful.
While we think these carrots can be made all year long, the holidays are what inspired this recipe. As a tasty side to our Wellington, and maybe with some Glazed Brussel Sprouts, you’ll impress all your friends and family.
From our families to yours, happy holidays and happy New Year!
