How to Make Baked Shredded Carrots

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
In a large bowl, combine 1 lb shredded carrots, 1/2 medium onion (finely chopped), 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon celery salt.
Transfer the carrot mixture to an ungreased 1 1/2-quart baking dish.
Dot the top with 2 tablespoons of butter.
Cover the baking dish with foil.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the carrots are tender-crisp. If using the grill, cook over medium heat for approximately the same time, covered, flipping halfway through. Check for doneness by testing with a fork; the carrots should be fork-tender but still retain a slight bite.
Remove from oven/grill and serve immediately. Enjoy!
