Place the baby carrots in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
1 lb baby carrots
Reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and simmer for about 35-40 minutes, or until the carrots are tender.
Drain 3/4 of the water from the carrots. Add the butter, brown sugar, and salt to the pot with the carrots. Stir to combine.
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons light brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt
Cook over medium-low heat, cover with the lid, and cook until the butter and brown sugar melt and create a smooth glaze that coats the carrots, about 5-6 minutes. Stir from time to time to make sure all the carrots are cooking evenly in the sauce.
Once the carrots are well-coated and heated through, transfer them to a serving dish and enjoy!
