2 lbs. baby carrots, ¼ cup water, 3 Tbsp. brown sugar, 3 Tbsp. honey*, 3 Tbsp. butter*, ¼ tsp. salt
Cook in Crock-pot: Set slow cooker to High for 5-6 hours or Low for 6-8 hours. Stir carrots after 4-5 hours and continue cooking until carrots are fork tender. (If you want a thicker glaze, remove the lid of the slow cooker and allow to cook on high for an additional 30 minutes to allow some of the liquid to evaporate.)
Serve glazed carrots with chopped thyme, rosemary or dill and enjoy!

Notes

Meal Prep and Storage

To Prep-Ahead: If you are peeling and chopping whole carrots, you can do that a day or two in advance. Additionally, you can also measure out all of the ingredients you will need, store them in a gallon-sized ziplock container, and add them to your slow cooker on the day of serving.
To Store: Keep leftover carrots in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Or, freeze these carrots in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 to 6 months.
To Reheat: You can warm these back up in a skillet or in the microwave.
