Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss carrots with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Spread carrots in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, until tender and caramelized.
While carrots roast, whip ricotta in a food processor or with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
In a small saucepan, gently warm honey and red pepper flakes over low heat for 2-3 minutes to infuse.
Spread whipped ricotta on a serving plate, top with roasted carrots, drizzle with hot honey, and garnish with fresh thyme.
