Lemon Honey-Glazed Carrots

  4.4 – 25 reviews  • Glazed Carrot Recipes

Delicious vegan apple pie recipe! My relatives loved it, and I cooked it myself. The crust is incredibly buttery and airy despite being vegan. Serve hot, cold, or barely warmed straight from the oven.

I had already cooked my baby carrots in beef stock. Taking notes from other cooks in the comments, I used coconut oil instead of butter (I only had about 1/3 cup left, it was enough). I chopped up 1 garlic clove and sauteed it, then added the honey, lemon juice & dill. It came out very good!

For those who didn’t like it…you haven’t used your imagination. This is an EASY recipe to tweak. If it’s too sweet… add more lemon and a bit of the zest. Go with more salt. Use your favorite herb…some dill or basil really pops in this. I see it as a springboard you can take up or down as you need to. Curry even works in it…and is really nice.

these were really tasty! my partner doesn’t usually eat carrots but he liked these. I couldn’t get the sauce to thicken sovI just spooned it over the rest of our meal
Chad Carpenter
Very easy and great flavor! I made a last minute choice to make baby carrots with dinner and looked up this recipe on a whim. I decided to try it because I had all ingredients. I made exactly as said except o used fresh ginger because I had it on hand. Everyone loved them!
Angela Hicks
I love this recipe! Most glazed carrot recipes are overly sweet, but this one isn’t. Delicious!
John Young
I took the advice of another review and sauteed a couple of smashed cloves of garlic in the butter first. I Used more ginger than called for and finished it off with some fresh cracked black pepper and a dash of salt.

I’m eating autoimmune paleo so I couldn’t use the butter. I substituted coconut butter, not knowing how that texture might end up. It worked great, another nice option for me. Just the right amount of sweet with the savory
Jim Nichols
I used garlic powder instead of ginger and added a little salt and pepper to taste. My family was OBSESSED and want me to make them again.
Brian Williams
Easy and delicious……. that says it all!
Tiffany Perez
It was so delicious. My kids loved it.
Bradley Harper
Probably the best carrots I have ever made. I did add a clove if garlic to the melted butter. Best carrots ever
Kevin Lopez
This turned out really yummy! My boyfriend doesn’t care for sweet glazed carrots, but this had a nice tangy/sweet mix that he actually enjoyed. I’ll definitely make this again!
Joshua Carlson
I will make this again, but will reduce the initial cook time from 10 minutes to 6 or 7 minutes to avoid overcooking them before the glazing process. The changes I made to the recipe were to use a few slices of fresh ginger root instead of dried, and I sprinkled a little fresh thyme.
Stacy Johnson
too sweet, not a hit
Alicia Smith
I used normal sized carrots (colorful assortment) cut into smaller pieces. really liked this recipe though I’m not a huge fan of carrots, I think we ate them all.
Amy Swanson
Very tasty. I used garlic and replaced the lemon with key limes and it was very good.
Jerry Montgomery
Just not a big fan of the honey.
Richard Bright
I loved these! I eyeballed the ingredients, probably added less honey and more ginger, and the results were excellent. I plan to make them again when we have guests next Friday.
Angela Jackson
Wonderful! Another great carrot recipe that my family will eat!
Deborah Mathews
Dd LOVED the honey, lemon, ginger combo. (I did add garlic) First bite…”Is there ginger? (I used fresh grated, all I had) Yum. This is so good! I like this so much better than the orange juice version. Make this A LOT more, ok?” Winner , winner, chicken dinner!
Scott Mitchell
The flavor was very good, but the sauce never formed a glaze or thickened at all. I just spooned it over a bed of rice.
