Preheat oven to 425degrees F/220 degrees C and spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
Peel carrots, then cut off ends. Cut carrots in half, then in half again. Cut thicker ends in half again so they are similar in width.
Toss in bowl with brown sugar, butter, butter extract, garlic, oil, salt and pepper. Spread out onto onto baking sheet.
Roast in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven, toss (you can leave them on the pan while you do this) then roast for an additional 10 minutes until you can easily put a fork through.
Place carrots in serving bowl (or you can leave on the pan) and toss carrots in the glaze, ensuring you scrape all the glaze from the baking sheet (and mix it in).
Garnish:
Sprinkle with parsley, if desired. Serve warm.
