Ingredients

Carrots: 2 pounds carrots, peeled and cut into sticks.
Butter: ¼ cup butter
Brown sugar: ¼ cup packed brown sugar
Seasonings: ¼ teaspoon salt and ⅛ teaspoon ground white pepper.

Directions

Gather all ingredients.
Place carrots into a large saucepan; pour in enough water to reach depth of 1 inch and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer carrots until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl.
Melt butter in the same saucepan over low heat. Stir in brown sugar, salt, and white pepper until dissolved. Add carrots to the saucepan and toss until coated in the brown sugar mixture. Cook and stir until carrots are heated through and fully coated with glaze, 1 to 3 more minutes.
Serve and enjoy!
