Easy Pickled Carrot Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 small bunch of carrots
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 1/2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
• 1 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
• 1-2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• White distilled vinegar, about 1 cup

Instructions

1. 1

   Wash and peel your carrots. Slice them into thin sticks and make sure they are similar in size to the jar you are using.

2. 2

   To a wide mouth, 16 oz mason jar, add the maple syrup, salt, garlic, peppercorns and water. Mix together well, so that the maple syrup isn’t sticking to the bottom of the jar.

3. 3

   Next, add in as many carrot sticks as you can fit into your jar. Fill the jar the rest of the way up with vinegar and screw the lid on as tightly as you can. Give the jar a really good shake, to make sure that all ingredients are distributed throughout.

4. 4

   Place the jar of carrots In the refrigerator and let sit for at least 24 hours until enjoying. Pickled carrots will stay good In the refrigerator for about 2 weeks, although I usually eat them all within a few days! Enjoy by themselves or with your favorite dip.
