Carrots: You can use large carrots and cut them up but baby carrots also work! Butter: I used unsalted butter in this recipe! Honey: The honey brings in a sweet taste without being too overpowering. It also enhances the natural sweetness that carrots have. Garlic Cloves: If you don’t have any cloves on hand then you can just use minced garlic! ½ tsp equals about 1 clove of garlic. Salt and Pepper: I use this to taste so it’s all about personal preference. Parsley: If you decide to use this as a garnish, fresh parsley works the best! Fresh thyme also works.

Make Ahead of Time: Carrots may be prepared up to 3 days ahead. Once you have cooked them according to the directions, wait for them to cool. Cover them in an airtight container and refrigerate them. When you are ready to eat them then toss cook them on the stove over medium heat. Stir and toss them constantly until the carrots are tender and well glazed. This takes about 5 minutes!
