CROCK POT GLAZED CARROTS



Crock Pot Glazed Carrots image

This recipe is posted as part of a challenge during ZWT8 for France Region. I used Bayhill's recipe (Recipe #232735) as the base for changing her dish to a crockpot dish. I did tweak a few ingredients while making this in the crockpot as I felt the brown sugar would work better than granulated and added cinnamon as it reminds me of another recipe I have posted on Zaar.
