Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby carrots
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Thoroughly wash the carrots and place them in a saucepan. Pour water on top of the carrots until the carrots are completely covered.
- Cover the pan and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Then reduce the heat to medium and cook covered for 20-25 minutes until the carrots are fork tender.
- Once the carrots are cooked through, pour half of the water out of the pan. Stir in the butter, brown sugar and salt. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
- Cover and cook for 6-7 more minutes. Watch closely so that the carrots don’t get mushy.
- Taste test and add more salt if needed.
- Then serve warm and enjoy!
