- ¾ cup water plus more if needed
- 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
- 5 sprigs fresh thyme
- 2 Tablespoons honey
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder

In a large pan over medium-high heat, add the carrots, water, butter, and thyme. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until carrots are just soft enough to be easily pierced with a knife. Do not over cook. If the pan gets too dry before the carrots are done, add a little more water.
