Ingredients

1 serving cooking spray

1 tablespoon butter, melted

1 tablespoon hot honey (such as Mike’s Hot Honey®)

1 teaspoon grated orange zest

½ teaspoon ground cardamom

½ pound baby carrots

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange juice

1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions
Gather all ingredients.

Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray the basket with nonstick spray.

Combine butter, honey, orange zest, and cardamom in a bowl. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the sauce to a separate bowl and set aside.

Add carrots to remaining sauce and toss to coat. Place carrots in the air fryer basket.

Cook in the preheated air fryer, tossing every 7 minutes, until carrots are roasted and fork-tender, about 15 to 22 minutes.

Mix orange juice with reserved honey-butter sauce. Toss with cooked carrots until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
