My husband was very skeptical about these carrots, but after one bite, he said they were great! Will definitely make this recipe again! I loved the orange flavor.

My 9 year old requested carrots this year as they are the only vegetable she likes, so I hunted for a good recipes-the carrots had to be coin shaped. I am so glad I found this recipe as everyone commented on the carrots and thanked our daughter for requesting them. This recipe will be added to our holiday meals menu.
