Slow Cooker Glazed Carrots Recipe

I know I shared a slow cooker recipe this morning, but these two recipes go perfectly together!  I have two slow cookers just for meals like this.  I love having a side dish and main dish all ready to go in the evening just by doing a little preparation in the morning.  These carrots are so good, even my picky kids ate them!

    What size crockpot would you recommend using? A 4 quart or does it need to be something even smaller? Thanks.

      4 or 6 quart works best!

    If I were to double or triple this recipe for a large crowd, should I plan for a longer time in the slow cooker? Thanks!

      It may take a little longer to cook. Watch them closely and check them.
