Add 1 pound baby carrots and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened.
Stir in 1/4 cup honey, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until carrots are almost tender.
