Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While it's warming up, slice the carrots into even pieces so they cook uniformly.
In a large bowl, mix together the maple syrup, olive oil, thyme, salt, and pepper. Then, toss the carrots in the mixture until they’re well coated.
Spread the carrots out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Roast them in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until they're tender and slightly caramelized, giving them a gentle stir halfway through.
Once they're done, remove the carrots from the oven and enjoy your deliciously glazed side dish!
