Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Deliciously Sweet Baked Carrots.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). This will create the perfect environment for our carrots to bake beautifully. Next, grab an 8-inch square pan and arrange the frozen whole baby carrots in a single layer. They’ll be the star of the show!
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine the white sugar, butter, boiling water, salt, and ground cinnamon. Stir this mixture until the butter melts and everything is well blended. This sweet concoction will add a lovely glaze to our carrots!
Step 3
Pour this delightful mixture over the arranged carrots in the pan, ensuring they are evenly coated. Now, cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil. This will help trap the steam and keep the carrots moist as they bake.
Step 4
Place the covered pan in your preheated oven and let it bake for about 1 1/2 hours. The aroma of sweet cinnamon and buttery goodness will fill your kitchen, making it hard to wait!
Step 5
After the time is up, carefully remove the foil and check if the carrots are tender. If they are, they’re ready to be served! If not, give them a little more time in the oven. Once done, serve these sweet baked carrots warm and enjoy the delightful flavors!
How to Serve
These sweet baked carrots make a wonderful side dish for roasted meats or a comforting addition to any holiday meal. Serve them warm, drizzled with the sweet glaze from the pan for an extra touch of flavor!
How to Store
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving again.
