Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel the carrots and slice them into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Place the carrots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
2
Drizzle the olive oil over the carrots and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss the carrots to coat them evenly with the oil and seasonings.
3
Roast the carrots in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and lightly caramelized.
4
While the carrots are roasting, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set it aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
5
Once the carrots are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle the crispy bacon bits and thyme sprigs over the top. Serve hot and enjoy!
