Maple Glazed Carrots

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds baby carrots
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/3 cup maple syrup
• Salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Place carrots into a pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and transfer carrots to a serving bowl.
