Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Buttery Glazed Carrots.
Step 1
Start by gathering your ingredients: fresh baby carrots, rich brown sugar, and creamy butter.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring water to a rolling boil and gently add the baby carrots.
Step 3
Let them cook until they’re tender, which should take about 8 to 10 minutes—just enough time to enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen.
Step 4
Once the carrots are perfectly cooked, strain them, but be sure to leave a little bit of that flavorful cooking water in the pot to keep things moist.
Step 5
Now, add the brown sugar and butter to the pot, stirring everything together until the butter melts and the mixture becomes a luscious, sweet glaze.
Step 6
Next, return the tender carrots to the pot and toss them in the buttery goodness, ensuring they’re evenly coated.
Step 7
Cover the pot and let it sit for a few minutes; this little pause allows the flavors to meld beautifully, creating a dish that’s not just a side but a star on your table.
Step 8
Enjoy the sweet and buttery transformation of your baby carrots!.
