Instructions

Preheat your grill over medium-high heat and allow it to reach temperature.
Rinse and peel the carrots thoroughly.
In a small bowl, combine coconut oil, cinnamon, chipotle paste, chili powder, and salt. Mix well and rub the seasoning evenly over the carrots with your hands.
Place the carrots on the hot grill over indirect heat, grilling for 20-25 minutes. Flip and rotate them every 7-8 minutes for even cooking. The cooking time may vary based on the size of the carrots; they should be tender but still firm when pinched.
Serve on a platter topped with fresh cilantro if desired.

Notes

Make sure to coat the carrots evenly for maximum flavor.
Adjust the spice levels by altering the amount of chipotle paste and chili powder if desired.
These carrots pair well with grilled meats or can be enjoyed on their own.
