Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

Place the carrots in a big bowl with 1 tsp of za'atar, cumin, olive oil and salt and ground black pepper. Toss well to mix.

Step 3

Spread the carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet.

Step 4

Roast the carrots for 25 to 30 minutes. Flip the carrots over halfway through cooking so both sides get lightly golden.

Step 5

Remove from the oven, return to the bowl, then toss with remaining teaspoon of za'atar.

Step 6

Garnish with parsley, if using. Serve hot, warm or cold.
