Recipe Notes
HOW TO MAKE GLAZED CARROTS A DAY AHEAD?
Allow carrots to cool completely. Transfer the cooled carrots to an airtight container and cover with a lid.
The carrots will store well for up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
TO REHEAT, add just a bit of butter to a pan and reheat over medium-low until the carrots are heated through and just beginning to brown.
CAN YOU COOK GLAZED CARROTS A DAY AHEAD?
Absolutely! Cooking carrots a day ahead is a time-saver and they are simple to reheat and serve.
While the microwave is OKAY to use for reheating, I suggest to pop them on the stove. Add just a bit of butter to the pan and reheat over medium-low heat until the carrots are heated through and just beginning to brown.
