    These paleo honey glazed carrots are a copycat of the carrots served at Charleston's Steakhouse and they are to die for! Plus, they are gluten and dairy-free 🙂

    I've been trying to perfect these paleo honey glazed carrots for what seems like forever. And I'm so happy to say that I finally did it!

    One of my favorite places to eat when my husband and I go on a date is a steakhouse named Charlestons. Every single time we go I order their honey glazed carrots 'cause they are to die for!

    I'm always trying to figure out what's in them cause they have a very unique but familiar taste.

    The last time we went I was slowly eating them trying to figure out their secret ingredient when my husband said, "I think they just put their steak seasoning in them!" O. My. Goodness, that was it!

    I now had their secret ingredient to make a perfect copycat version - only paleo-compliant!

    After he pointed it out to me, it seemed so obvious and I can't believe I never figured it out myself!

    And even though I don't know for sure the ingredients they use, my copycat version tastes almost the exact same. Now every time I make them I feel like we are on a date 🙂

    🔪 Easy instructions

    Start by peeling and chopping 2 lbs. of carrots into bite-sized pieces.

    Alternatively, you can use store-bought baby carrots. But I highly recommend chopping and peeling your own! They are much more flavorful.

    Then, add water to the bottom of a steamer basket and place the carrots in the basket.

    Place over medium-high heat. Cover and steam until fork-tender, around 10 - 15 minutes.

    Be careful not to over-cook or they'll be mushy! Only cook until fork-tender.

    Once the carrots are done, drain the water from the pot and pour in the carrots.

    Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add some butter (can use ghee or non-dairy), honey, and coconut palm sugar (or brown sugar).

    Cook until a glaze coats the carrots, around 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

     Stir in some steak seasoning and lemon juice and serve!

    If you have any leftovers, you can store them in the fridge for 3 to 5 days. To reheat, gently heat on the stove until heated through.

    💭 Top tips

    • Be careful not to over-cook the carrots or they will turn out mushy! Cook them until they're just fork-tender.
    • Leftovers can be stored, covered, in the fridge for 3 to 5 days. To reheat, heat a little oil in a frying pan or pot and heat over medium-low. Add the carrots and saute until heated through.
