Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb baby carrots
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cranberry sauce

Steps:

  • Bring a pan of water to boil and add the carrots. Cook for 8-10 minutes, (until crisp-tender). Drain and put aside.
  • In a pan over medium-high heat, combine the butter, brown sugar and cranberry sauce, stirring until smooth. Simmer 2 minutes, then add the carrots and glaze for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, if desired.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, vibrant carrots for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen or dried cranberries instead. Just be sure to thaw the frozen cranberries before using.
  • To make the glaze, you can use either light or dark brown sugar. Dark brown sugar will give the glaze a richer flavor, while light brown sugar will give it a more delicate flavor.
  • If you want a thicker glaze, you can simmer it for a few minutes longer. Just be sure to watch it carefully so that it doesn't burn.
  • Serve the glazed cranberry carrots immediately, while they are still warm and tender.

Conclusion:

Glazed cranberry carrots are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give glazed cranberry carrots a try.
