Ingredients
  

  • 1 16 ounce package baby carrots
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped (optional, for garnish)

Method
 

  1. Place baby carrots in a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Reduce heat to medium and cook until carrots are tender when pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and carefully drain carrots in a strainer.
  4. Return the empty pot to the stove over medium-low heat and add butter.
  5. Once butter is melted, add honey and brown sugar, stirring until combined.
  6. Return the drained carrots to the pot and gently toss to coat with the sweet glaze.
  7. Season with salt and pepper, stirring to combine.
  8. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly and coats the carrots evenly.
  9. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
