Equipment

  • Large skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound carrots peeled and cut diagonally into ⅓ inch thick slices
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet over medium high heat, add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the sliced carrots. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl stir the melted butter, maple syrup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and kosher salt.
