Cinnamon Carrot Casserole
"WONDERFUL FLAVOR!! Bake along in oven with a meat or Microwave for a quick and easy casserole. The butter-cinnamon mixture is AWESOME with the carrots and makes a good side dish with any dinner! Great to carry to a potluck because it is great served hot or cold."

Hi Emily I can't wait to try this recipes you submitted for Cinnamon Carrot Casserole. My question is did you have an excess of liquid after cooking? If so, did you use a slotted spoon for serving or drain excess liquid prior to serving?

Seems to be WAY too much water, and too much sugar and butter for only one lb of carrots. All you need is a small splash then you won’t have to drain or “save the juice” as others have stated. I remade the recipe with just a splash Of water, less brown sugar and less butter. I let it set and was a perfect amount didnt need any draining. With the amount of sugar and butter in this recipe, you can cook twice as many carrots in the recipe without draining anything out of it. -
Great recipe! My brothers Son loved it and he says he hates cooked carrots. I even screwed up the recipe by putting the carrots in too small of a dish so the water didn't properly evaporate. But even still it had a wonderful flavor. I used the oven and cooked for an hour like the directions said. I'd make it again. -
WoW, I made this in the microwave for speed and just to taste. The carrots are delicious and I've saved the juice to cook something else in; chick peas are looking favourite at the moment. Great recipe and I've already shared it on my facebook page for all the Mum's with carrot-hating kids. -
My family loved the carrots made like this. I served it as a side to chicken wellingtons and everyone gobbled up the carrots. I made as per recipe, (using the microwave option) although I had run out of cinnamon, but has some cinnamon sugar so used a sprinkling of that. The flavours were wonderful , the carrots had just the right sweetness and tenderness to them. This is one I will be making again. Thanks S.C! -
Flavour was good but the proportions seem to be off. My carrots were floating in the butter-cinnamon mixture. And, after the suggested cooking time, they had shrivelled up - almost like they had boiled in the mixture.
