Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat the oven to 400˚F and line a baking sheet with foil.
Using kitchen shears or a sharp knife, carefully cut or slice bacon in half lengthwise.
Starting at the thicker end, wrap bacon around each carrot until fully covered, in a single, non-overlapping layer.
If you have some bacon left at the end, trim and save to reinforce another carrot if needed!
Place carrots carefully onto baking sheet in a single layer, trying to keep the ends of the bacon on the bottom side so they're weighed down (don't stress too much about it either way)
Once all carrots are assembled onto the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and evenly sprinkle on thyme and freshly cracked black pepper.
Place into oven and roast for 25 minutes, or until bacon is fully cooked and carrots can be easily pierced with a fork at their thickest point.
Using tongs, carefully transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess bacon fat.
When plating, sprinkle on extra chopped thyme for garnish, if desired.
Enjoy!! Try not to eat the entire bunch!
