The carrots were a little dry, but the flavor was good. I think I would add a little bit of water to the baking dish next time.

These carrots were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less honey next time.

I wasn't sure how these would turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised! The carrots were tender and flavorful, and the butter and honey glaze was the perfect finishing touch.

These were so easy to make and turned out great! I added a little bit of garlic powder and dried thyme to the butter and it gave them a really nice flavor.

I made these carrots for dinner last night and they were delicious! I used baby carrots and they cooked perfectly in the time stated in the recipe. The butter and honey glaze was the perfect finishing touch.
