Crispy Parmesan Carrot Sticks
This is the only way I’m consuming carrots from now on.
These were so delicious and easy to make in under 30 minutes. Simply peel your carrots and slice them into 3 pieces (2 pieces if they’re short carrots). Then slice those smaller pieces in half lengthwise so that each piece has a flat side. Mix up the oil mixture and coat the vegetables in that. You can just as easily roast them like this, but the level up of dipping them in the freshly grated parm is incredible.

Crispy Parmesan Carrot Sticks
Ingredients
Optional Dip:
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425℉. NO PARCHMENT for your baking sheet here.
- Slice your carrots into 3 INCH long pieces and then slice those in half lengthwise so there is a flat side to each piece.
- To a large bowl, add the olive oil, garlic, 1/4 cup grated parmesan, spices and salt to taste. Toss and coat everything with your carrot pieces.
- House the freshly grated parmesan in a shallow small bowl and dip the flat cut side of each carrot into the cheese. Transfer each piece, spaced out, onto the baking sheet, cheese side down. Roast for 20-25 minutes or until tender. Time will vary with the size of your carrot pieces.

Can these be made a head of time?
Or are they suppose to be served warm?
HI Karrie, I recommend serving these warm or room temp for best experience!
I am so excited to make these for Easter – can they be made ahead of time? Also are they best served hot, warm, cold or room temp? Thank you.
I recommend to serve warm or room tmeperature! So sorry for the late response!
What other dips would be good with these? I’m making them for a dish to pass at a family dinner and was thinking of having a couple dipping options but wasn’t sure what to go with.
I would recommend my feta dip or avocado dip.. I will link below:

it says carbs are 15 but for how many carrots pieces ?
HI Billie, its for one fourth of the dish.
These were like the best snack i’ve had in a long time. I made a big portion and it was like chips!!! But even better if you can believe that!
Hi Cierra, I literally felt the same way! So glad you tried them and liked them!
Can these carrots be made in the airfryer? If so, what temp and for how long?
400F 8 minutes, flip, another 8 minutes
I did some in the air fryer. 400 for 12 mins . for it was starting to look burnt, didn’t come out as crispy but still good. Carrots roasted in oven came out perfect!
Hi Ti, I’m glad you saved them! Thank you for your feedback too!
Thank you. Quick, easy, healthy and delicious! I was led here by tiktok🙂
Hi Tony, glad you came! Thanks for trying the recipe and the kind rating!
Why no parchment paper?
Hi Susan, the contact with the baking sheet is what creates the crisp. You can definitely still use parchment and they will still be delicious – just less crispy! Enjoy!
Do you spray the baking sheet first? With non-stick spray?
I did not spray the pan. You can but there is oil in the coating of the carrots and that does the trick!
I did it both ways, cause I didn’t notice the no parchment thing until the first pan went in. 🤷♀️. The parchment made the cheese disappear. The pan made the cheese crispy. Definitely go no parchment.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience with the parchment! Glad you liked them too!
Would lining the baking sheet with tin foil have the same negative effect?
Hi Jordan, I’m not a fan of aluminum foil but you can totally use it and it should very well!
Omg! These carrots are so delicious! Made them tonight and was thrilled with how good they came out. I highly recommend.
Hi Sarah, thanks so much for trying out the carrot recipe! Glad it was enjoyed!
can you do these in the air fryer instead?
Parmesan cheese is mentioned twice. Is there supposed to be another type of cheese?
Hi Tina,
Yes, in the oil mixture I used store bought grated cheese, it holds up better. For the last step “DIPPING” into the cheese, I used freshly grated cheese.
Where can I find the recipe for the dip for the carrots?
Hi Lori, its linked in the recipe box. I will be doing a video for it shortly though with its own page!
