Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Honey Mint Glazed Carrots.
Step 1
Start by placing a steamer insert into a saucepan, filling it with water just below the bottom of the steamer. Cover the pot and bring the water to a vigorous boil over high heat. Once boiling, add the baby carrots, cover again, and steam them until they are just tender, which should take about 2 to 6 minutes depending on their thickness. After steaming, drain the carrots and set them aside.
Step 2
In a skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add the steamed carrots to the skillet. Sprinkle in the brown sugar, drizzle the honey, and add the crushed dried mint. Stir everything together gently, allowing the sugar to dissolve and the flavors to meld. Continue cooking and stirring for about 2 to 3 minutes until the carrots are beautifully glazed and coated in the sweet minty mixture.
