Grandma's Recipes for Mother and Daughter

by American Molasses Company

2 tablespoons butter or margarine

Heat oven to 350° F. (moderate). Cook carrots and onions until almost tender in just enough salted water to be absorbed during cooking. Place in casserole. Sprinkle with pepper. Dribble with molasses and dot with butter or margarine. Bake, uncovered, 25 minutes (basting occasionally) until vegetables have browned and are nicely glazed.

YIELD: 4 servings.

Glazed Sweet Potatoes or Squash: Replace carrots and onions with cooked sweet potatoes or parboiled winter squash.
