Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb baby carrots
  • 1 packet of coconut milk powder
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tbsp cane sugar
  • 1 tsp complete seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tbsp toasted coconut flakes optional, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Rinse the baby carrots and set aside.
  • Combine coconut milk powder, sugar, complete seasoning, and black pepper in a large skillet. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the baby carrots to the skillet. Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the carrots are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Remove the lid and increase heat to medium-high. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces and forms a glaze, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add butter and lime juice, stirring until the butter is melted and incorporated into the glaze.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if needed.
  • Transfer the glazed carrots to a serving dish. If desired, garnish with toasted coconut flakes.
  • Serve hot as a side dish.
