Ingredients
Carrot Casserole Ingredients
- 4 cups fresh carrots, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup full-fat sour cream
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 0.25 cup melted butter
- 1 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Cook Carrots: Boil water in a large pot, add the sliced carrots, and cook for about 8-10 minutes until tender. Drain the carrots thoroughly to avoid excess moisture.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, eggs, brown sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Combine Carrots: Gently fold the cooked carrots into the creamy mixture, coating them evenly while maintaining their shape.
- Assemble Casserole: Transfer the carrot mixture into the greased baking dish and evenly sprinkle the seasoned breadcrumbs over the top to create a crispy crust.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the casserole is bubbly and the breadcrumb topping turns golden brown.
- Serve: Optionally garnish with fresh herbs for a colorful presentation before serving warm.
Notes
- For a pop of color, garnish with fresh herbs such as parsley or thyme before serving.
