Baked Carrots - Allergy Free CookBook

Updated: Sep 22

Baking carrots is an easy way to prepare raw carrots so they are easy to eat. For people with low vision, or low dexterity, slicing raw carrots can be very dangerous, as they tend to slide. There is no need to peel carrots. Adding a dash or two of salt, and a 1/4 cup of brown sugar will also help soften them. Another option for slicing raw carrots is to soak them in water in the fridge for up to 12 hours. Canned or frozen carrots can also be baked, though canned ones may fall apart if baked too long.
