Maple Glazed Carrots
Report
Maple glazed carrots are a quick and flavorful side dish the whole family will love! My recipe comes together in one pan on the stove or in the microwave. Feel free to substitute the maple syrup with honey for honey glazed carrots!!

Ingredients
- 1 lb carrots cut into 2”x1 ½” sticks
- ½ cup water
- 1 ½ Tablespoons salted butter
- 2 Tablespoons light brown sugar firmly packed
- 1 Tablespoon maple syrup
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme optional
- ¼ teaspoon salt plus additional to taste
- ¼ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper plus additional to taste
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a skillet over medium heat. Stir frequently until butter is melted.
- Increase heat to medium high and bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
- Reduce heat to a simmer, cover, and cook for 8-10 minutes or until carrots are just tender when pierced with a fork.
- Remove lid and cook, stirring frequently, on medium-high until water is evaporated and carrots are glazed.
- Taste-test and add additional salt/pepper if needed.
Notes
- Baby carrots are a nice easy substitute, no peeling or dicing required!Peeling the carrots isn’t necessary, but they will appear a brighter orange color and glossier if they are peeled before being cooked.
- You may substitute honey for the maple syrup.
