For a Christmas twist, add a touch of orange, which complements the honey's sweetness with a refreshing citrus kick.

In a bowl, whisk together honey, orange juice, and olive oil.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Chop the tough tops off the carrot, about ½" off each one. If the carrots are large, cut them in half lengthwise and chop them down the middle. This will make them cook faster. If desired, you can chop the carrots into 1-inch chunks and cook them that way – they will be done even sooner!
Arrange carrots in one or more large baking pans and pour orange mixture over them. Use a spoon to roll them around and coat them. Make sure the carrots have plenty of "breathing room." You want them to be evenly spread out, not all piled up on top of each other in the dish.
Bake for 40-60 minutes, using a spoon to mix them around every 20 minutes or so. They are done when they feel fork-tender. Note: These will not be quite as tender as steamed carrots as they keep a hint of their crunch after baking.
