Add 1/4 cup sliced almonds, 3 sliced garlic cloves and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes; cook, stirring, until toasted, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Add the carrots, 2 tablespoons each maple syrup and white wine vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt to the skillet. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until glazed, 4 to 5 minutes.

• Meanwhile, mix sugar and salt together in a small bowl; sprinkle about 1 tablespoon sugar mixture into a large bowl.

Transfer carrots to the hot baking sheet and arrange in an even layer and roast, on the bottom rack, until the carrots are tender and browned all over, 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
• While carrots are roasting, toast almonds on a separate baking sheet, on the top rack, until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
