Crockpot Glazed Carrots Recipe

Can I confess that I only like cooked carrots so this recipe was perfect for me. John only likes them raw so I kept some to the side for him and enjoyed a ton of cooked carrots. The things you do for a happy marriage 🙂

These Crock Pot Glazed Carrots are perfect for Easter or any family dinner. The slow cooker does the work and you have a great veggie side dish ready to go!

I love quick and easy vegetable side dishes for the holidays! These crockpot carrots are perfect for Christmas and Thanksgiving dinner!

You can free up oven space by using your slow cooker. The whole family will love this simple slow cooker side dish that is packed with flavor.

We pair these slow cooker carrots with crockpot ham, turkey, and all our favorite holiday recipes.

Ingredients

• Baby carrots
• Orange juice
• Brown sugar
• Butter
• Orange zest
• Ground cinnamon
• Vanilla extract
• Salt
• Cornstarch

Optional Garnish - fresh thyme, fresh parsley

The carrots are cooked as they soak in the melted butter, cinnamon, orange juice glaze. These slow cooker glazed carrots can be made with a bag of baby carrots or you can use sliced carrots.

I normally pick the baby-sized carrots in a bag because they are easy and you can skip the step of having to slice the carrots.

Equipment Needed

Crockpot - We suggest using a crockpot that has a digital timer that automatically switches the slow cooker to warm after a set amount of time. This helps make sure your dinner cooks perfectly and you don't have to stress about what time it is going to be done.

Spider Strainer - I love using a spider strainer to easily drain the crock pot carrots and move them to a serving bowl.

Recipe Tips

Cook the carrots until they are tender, stir before serving to distribute the glaze.

Store any leftover carrots in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Great Crockpot Side Dishes

One thing I love about using the slow cooker all the time is it saves space in the oven and makes it easier to spread out the dishes I need to cook for holiday meals.

I can set up a schedule of getting everything started and then taking a deep breath instead of running all over trying to get things done.

These are some of our favorite slow cooker side dishes.

Crockpot Creamed Corn

Crockpot Garlic Herb Mashed Potatoes

Crockpot Loaded Mashed Cauliflower

Crockpot Stuffing

We have a ton of crock pot vegetarian recipes.

We love pairing these carrots as a side dish for ham or as a great side dish for chicken.
