Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and peel the carrots, then cut them into uniform pieces, about 1 to 2 inches long.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the carrots with olive oil, maple syrup, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until well-coated. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.
  3. Roast the carrots for 20 to 25 minutes, turning halfway through until tender and golden.
  4. While the carrots roast, allow the ricotta cheese to come to room temperature and whip until creamy and smooth.
  5. In a small bowl, mix chili flakes into hot honey, adjusting the spice level to taste.
  6. Once the carrots are roasted, arrange them on a platter, top with whipped ricotta, drizzle with hot honey, and garnish with fresh herbs.
