I couldn't taste the orange: basic glazed carrots.

These were fabulous! I did take the advice of another review and put everything in a frying pan, after boiling, to reduce the sauce to more of a glaze consistency. The results were spectacular. They may have even swayed two people who didn't like carrots!

A good idea, but I agree with another review stating that it doesn't really take on much orange flavor. Fine, but not great.

These carrots are very tasty...but the sauce is very, very runny. I added some cornstarch mixed with a small amount of water while the sauce was boiling...this helped a lot, forming the juice into a glaze that coated the carrots. The only other problem I had with this recipe is that the carrots didn't take on as much orange flavor as I would have liked...all in all, this is a simple, tasty side dish that I would make again. Thanks for sharing!

I prefer a "candied" carrot. So I used cinnamon, brown sugar, butter, and vanilla. This gives it a sticky feel, I just pictured organge juice making this too runny.

I made this twice. It definitely needed cornstarch to thicken the glaze. I ended up adding ginger & cinnamon to my second batch because I felt like it needed a little something extra than the recipe called for. My family ended up devouring that second batch.

I followed the suggestions of others to make the sauce in another pan and add 2 tsp of corn starch, but I think next time I will add less because there was a slight aftertaste, but this was a really great recipe and I will be making it again.

This was a tasty recipe for baby carrots. I steamed the carrots, drained, stirred in 1/4 c. orange juice and the rest of the ingredients along with a little honey. Not a show stopper, but good.
