This is a wonderful and sweet side that's simple enough for a family dinner, yet impressive enough for a holiday side. I sometimes add raisins to this dish for a holiday.
I don't buy many organic foods but if I'm going to buy baby carrots, I do! I don't want to further spread a possibly exaggerated truth about baby carrots but I don't want anything soaked in chlorine or bleach as my vegetable. Whether this is true or not, I can tell you that I sometimes buy carrots for my bunny and when I buy whole ones, they last a few weeks or a month at most before getting mushy and gross. I've had mini bags of carrots that look the same after 6 months! You be the judge.
Take 3 cups of raw baby carrots and toss with 3 Tbsp honey, 2 Tsp cinnamon, 1/2 Tsp nutmeg, and 1 Tsp brown sugar. Add to a baking dish sprayed with non-stick spray and filled with 3/4 cup of water or broth. Bake in a 350 degree oven until the carrots begin to caramelize and the edges of the baking dish turn a bit brown like in the top right corner of the title photo.
