Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 pounds carrots peeled and sliced into thick sticks
  • 6 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Pinch ground black pepper
  • Freshly chopped parsley for garnish optional

Instructions

  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Toss in the carrots, followed by the brown sugar, maple syrup, salt, and pepper.

  • The glaze will thicken a little more once it is removed from heat. Serve immediately topped with the freshly topped parsley if desired.
