Glazed Carrots
Butter and brown sugar-coated glazed carrots offer a versatile side dish that pairs well with weeknight meatloaf, Sunday ham, or your Thanksgiving turkey. These caramelized carrots are sure to delight kids, yet their elegant flavor profile is sophisticated enough to impress adults too!
Ingredients
- 2 pounds carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
- ¼ cup butter
- ¼ cup packed brown sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground white pepper
Instructions
- Place carrots into a large saucepan; pour in enough water to reach depth of 1 inch and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer carrots until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.
- Melt butter in the same saucepan over low heat. Stir in brown sugar, salt, and white pepper until dissolved. Add carrots to the saucepan and toss until coated in the brown sugar mixture. Cook and stir until carrots are heated through and fully coated with glaze, 1 to 3 more minutes.
