Notes

For a different flavor, use maple syrup in place of honey. Cut the carrots into even pieces so they cook at the same rate and caramelize nicely. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days and reheat gently in a skillet or in a low oven with a splash of water or oil to refresh the glaze. This dish is best fresh, as freezing can make the carrots mushy. Serve alongside roasted meats, grain bowls, or holiday entrées.
