Maple Glazed Carrots

Everyone says to never try a new recipe on a holiday or for a party, well, this was a new recipe that I made for the first time on Thanksgiving! I had plenty of taste testers that day! These carrots were loved by everyone, even the non carrot lovers of the group enjoyed this! I will be keeping this on my holiday menu! I made this on the stove top while the turkey was resting.

INGREDIENTS
10 carrots (or I bought two bags of colored carrots already prepped)
4 Tablespoons butter, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup pure maple syrup
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
Fresh cracked pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS
Wash and slice carrots into sticks. Heat skillet over medium high heat, add two tablespoons of butter and sauté carrots until they start to just get soft about ten minutes or so (depending on the size of your carrots). Turn the skillet down to medium heat. Add salt, syrup, butter and brown sugar cook uncovered until tender to the bite and the sauce has thickened. (About ten more minutes) Add black pepper to taste.
Serve warm.

Enjoy!
