I cooked delicious honey-glazed carrots in 20 minutes with just 3 ingredients and no oven

You only need carrots, honey and butter for this recipe
For this , I started by cutting off the ends of the carrots, peeling them and cutting them in half lengthways.
Once done, put the carrots in the air fryer to cook for 10 minutes at 180 degrees – no need to preheat it.
While the carrots were cooking in the air fryer, I grabbed a microwave-safe bowl and added some honey and butter with some salt and pepper before putting it in the microwave for one minute to melt.

I melted together honey and butter for the glaze
With the 10 minutes up, I put the carrots into the bowl of melted butter and honey and made sure to fully coat them.

This method brings out the natural sweetness of the carrots and complements the salty, savoury flavours of roast potatoes and gravy.
Not only did the carrots taste delicious cooked like this, parsnips made this way would also be fantastic.
Any leftovers you may have can be chopped up and added to hearty casseroles, stews and pies.
