Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots (do not use baby carrots)
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup honey
- Zest of 1 orange
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Peel the carrots and slice into 1 1/2-inch chunks. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan or a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Pour into the bottom of a 4-quart or larger slow cooker. Add the honey, orange zest, and salt, then stir to combine. Add the carrots and stir to coat.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-6 hours or high for 2-3 hours until tender, stirring once halfway through. Serve warm, garnished with parsley.

Notes
- TO MAKE AHEAD: Carrots can be peeled and sliced up to 2 days in advance.
- TO STORE: Store leftovers in the refrigerator—the butter will harden on the outside but melt again and be delicious when the leftover carrots are reheated.
