Family recipes are fantastic, but they don't amount to much unless you continue to make them. This is my Grandmother's recipe for glazed carrots. She would make these all the time, but specifically they were always on the table when we celebrated Easter. They really are the perfect springtime side dish. This recipe is sooo easy and comes together really quickly. I hope you enjoy these and find them as irresistible as I do!
Glazed Carrots
Serves 4-6
What you’ll need:
2 lbs. baby carrots
¼ cup butter (or earth balance to make it vegan)
½ cup light brown sugar, firmly packed
¼ cup mustard
2 tbsp. chopped chives
What you’ll do:
Place the carrots in large pot with 1 inch water, steam till tender and drain.
In separate small pot, combine butter, sugar and mustard. Cook on low heat stirring until dissolved. Pour mixture over carrots and toss with chives. Serve warm.
Wonderful to post this recipe Leslie. Don’t forget to remind people that this is especially good with pork and ham.
Lovely recipe. I hope I’ll get to try it soon.
