Ingredients
- 1 (16-ounce) bag baby carrots
- ½ cup water
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Combine carrots, water, butter, and brown sugar in a pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
- Cover and reduce the heat to cook on low for approximately 6 minutes.
- Keeping covered, turn the heat back to high and cook, stirring occasionally, until all the water is evaporated and carrots are tender, another 5–6 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Notes
- Variation: For some extra flavor and texture, add ⅓ cup pine nuts or chopped, toasted walnuts or pecans after simmering for the first 6 minutes.
- Oven Directions: Place baby carrots in a buttered casserole dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with brown sugar and drizzle on melted butter. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour.
