Glazed carrots are always a crowd favorite!!! They are super easy to make, nourishing and so dang delicious. I love these carrots especially on holidays to add color and deliciousness to the plate. But feel free to make them any day of the week as a side dish your whole family will love. Concerned about the sugar ? Use olive oil and salt. You will still have delicious carrots with out the added sweetness.

Saving Money:
Carrots are super budget friendly. If you are unable to get Raw Honey, do not use honey. Regular honey is not the same. Use only coconut sugar ( you can buy in bulk from bulk barn, the exact amount you need). You can also use brown sugar if that is all you have.
