Honey Glazed Carrots
These carrots not only look good but taste even better! They’re coated with a sticky, sweet glaze that elevates them to a whole new level. Grab your apron and let’s get started!
Ingredients:
- 1 pound of baby carrots
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- 1/4 cup of honey
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon (optional, but highly recommended)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Start by washing your carrots thoroughly. If you’re using regular carrots, go ahead and slice them into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Let it get nice and bubbly but don’t let it burn!
- Add the carrots to the skillet and sauté them for about 3-4 minutes until they are slightly tender.
- Drizzle that golden honey over the carrots and sprinkle in the salt, pepper, and cinnamon if you’re using it. Stir well to coat all the carrots in that sweet goodness.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the carrots cook for another 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. You want them tender and glazed perfectly!
- Once they’re cooked, taste them to make sure they are just right. Add more honey or salt if you need to balance those flavors just right.
- Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if you like. It adds a nice pop of color and freshness!
