Ingredients

2 pounds baby carrots
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup brown sugar
4 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
pinch of nutmeg
2 Tablespoons honey
freshly chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Add the carrots, water, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg into the Instant Pot. Gently stir to coat the carrots.
Place the lid on the Instant Pot and make sure that the valve is set to "sealing." Cook on manual high pressure for 6 minutes. Once the timer has gone off, carefully turn the valve to perform a quick release of the pressure.
Once the pin has dropped, open the lid. Spoon the carrots and your preferred amount of liquid into a bowl and drizzle the carrots with honey and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley. Serve warm.

Notes

There will be liquid in the Instant Pot when the carrots are done cooking. It is very flavorful so you can use it to baste the carrots before serving.
How to Store: Store leftover carrots in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop over low heat.
