Ingredients
- 2 lb carrots washed and trimmed
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup brown sugar or honey
- ½ teaspoon salt plus more to taste
- Crack of fresh black pepper
- ground cinnamon optional
Instructions
- Peel carrots and chop any large carrots in half. Slice carrots diagonally into 1″ pieces. You want the pieces to be pretty similar in size so they cook evenly.
- Add carrots to a large saucepan along with enough water to reach 1” high. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until carrots start to soften, about 8-10 minutes.
- Remove the lid then drain the water. Add butter, brown sugar, salt and pepper. Continue to cook with the lid off cooking on medium low, the carrots for about 5-6 more minutes, until carrots are tender and a glaze starts to form.
- Taste and add additional salt and pepper, if needed. Serve warm.
Notes
- To store: Let the carrots cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container. They’ll stay fresh in the fridge for up to 3-4 days.
- Reheating: To reheat, simply warm them up in a skillet over medium heat or pop them in the microwave for a quick reheat.
