Best Kid-Friendly Carrot Recipe Ever!
My staples of peas and corn have been getting old, so I decided to try to find some new recipes for vegetables that my little girl would actually enjoy.
In my search, I came across a carrot dish that sounded down-right tasty (and I'm not a carrot eater). These carrots hit the sweet spot and had my toddler asking for "mooo" (more)!
Ingredients
10 fresh whole carrots
2 tsp brown sugar
1 cinnamon stick
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tbsp cold butter
water
Cut carrots into 1/4 inch slices. Put in pan with enough water to cover carrots about half-way. Add cinnamon stick, brown sugar, and salt. Simmer until carrots are tender but not mushy. Drain carrots keeping liquid separate. Return liquid to pan with cinnamon stick and continue boiling gently until the liquid has reduced to a few teaspoons (ours was already reduced quite a bit so we skipped this step). Add butter and swirl until combined. Return carrots to pan and toss to coat. Eat 'em up!
*We only used 5 carrots and we had only enough to feed the three of us, so I doubled the amounts to feed a larger group (or have leftovers).
