# Step-by-Step Guide:

Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Boil the sliced carrots in salted water for about 10 to 12 minutes until they’re soft when poked with a fork. Drain and cool down a bit.
03 -
Place the cooked carrots on the lined tray and gently press each one flat using a glass or measuring cup.

Pour olive oil over the smashed carrots. Sprinkle on the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper evenly. Then scatter the Parmesan cheese on top.

Pop them in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Turn them over halfway through so they get golden and crispy all over.

Top with chopped parsley and serve right away so they stay crunchy.
