Why You’ll Love Crockpot Cracker Barrel Carrots

- Tender and Flavorful: Slow-cooking carrots in a rich syrupy mixture makes them extra soft and packed with flavor.
- Perfect for Any Meal: Whether you’re serving them for a weeknight dinner or a holiday feast, these carrots make an ideal side dish for just about any main course.
- Sweet and Savory: The combination of butter, brown sugar, and seasonings gives these carrots that classic Cracker Barrel taste — sweet, savory, and comforting.
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds baby carrots (or regular carrots, peeled and cut into chunks)
- 1/4 cup butter (cut into small pieces)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for a warm touch)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Carrots:
Start by washing and peeling the baby carrots. If you’re using regular carrots, peel them and cut them into bite-sized chunks. The smaller you cut them, the quicker they’ll cook, but you can also leave them whole for a more rustic presentation.
2. Add Ingredients to the Crockpot:
Place the prepared carrots into your Crockpot. Add the butter, brown sugar, water, and cinnamon (if using). Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Stir everything together so that the carrots are evenly coated with the butter, sugar, and spices.
