Honey Glazed Carrots
Carrots are so beautiful in color and flavor. I love them raw. I don’t even need Ranch dressing for dipping. If you are looking for a cooked carrot recipe that lets their beauty shine through, this is the one you want to make. Simple and fast, with a light touch of seasoning.
Equipment
- Small saucepan with lid
Ingredients
- 8 oz. Baby carrots , about 1 1/2 cups (See Notes)
- 3 Tbsp Water
- 1 Tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Butter
- 1/8 tsp Salt
- 1/8 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients into a small saucepan with a lid. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover with a lid and cook for 5-7 minutes; the carrots should be almost done.
- Uncover and cook, stirring often, until the liquid has thickened into a glaze. This will take 1-2 minutes. The carrots should be tender.
Notes
You can use baby carrots, sliced carrots, and any variety you prefer. Cooking times may vary, so check for doneness at the minimum times listed.
