Crock Pot Glazed Carrots Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

This three-ingredient recipe for easy crock pot glazed carrots is delicious. With baby carrots, preparation is so easy. All you have to do is open the bag and pop them into the slow cooker. You should remove any that look shriveled or are split because they won't look as nice in the finished dish. If you're ever lucky enough to find real baby carrots in the market, young carrots with the tops still attached, use them in this recipe. Just cut off the leafy tops, leaving some of the green stem attached, scrub the carrots and cook. Sometimes you can find carrots of different colors, especially in co-ops and organic markets. They are beautiful and delicious. This is an excellent side dish to serve when you're grilling a steak or chicken, or during the holidays. The slow cooker is a great way to free up your oven for baking rolls or side dishes or roasting the holiday turkey or ham. You can cook other root vegetables using this method, too. Think about cooking parsnips, turnips, or sweet potatoes this way. Just peel them and slice them into thin strips or into chunks. Use the same amounts and the same ingredients. You could add some spices or herbs to this recipe as well. Cinnamon or nutmeg would be delicious or go the spicy route and add some cayenne pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, or minced jalapeo peppers. Serve along with meatloaf, roasted chicken, or broiled fish in the fall and winter for an easy and delicious meal.
