  • 1 lb carrots peeled and sliced into coins
  • 2 tbsp butter or vegan butter
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Method
 

  1. Combine: First, place the sliced carrots, butter, honey, water, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large skillet.
  2. Simmer: Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover the pan, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 5-7 minutes until carrots are nearly tender.
  3. Reduce: Remove the lid. Turn the heat back up to medium-high. Let the liquid boil rapidly.
