Ingredients:

  • 1 pounds carrots, cut into ¼-inch slices (6-8 carrots)
  • ½ teaspoon salt, if desired
  • ⅔ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange peel
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup honey

Instructions:

  1. Heat 1 inch water to boiling in 3-quart saucepan. Add carrots and, if desired, ½ teaspoon salt. Cover and heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer covered 12 to 15 minutes or until carrots are tender.
  2. While carrots are cooking, heat brown sugar, butter, orange peel and ½ teaspoon salt in a skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved and mixture is bubbly. Be careful not to overcook or the mixture will taste scorched. Remove from heat.
  3. Drain carrots. Stir carrots and honey into brown sugar mixture. Cook over low heat about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally and gently, until carrots are glazed and hot.
