Ingredients

3 tbsp. pine nuts 3 tbsp. unsalted butter 2 tbsp. apricot jam 1 tbsp. sugar 2 tsp. sherry vinegar 1 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. cinnamon 1 1/2 lb. medium-sized carrots 7 ripe apricots 3 scallions 1/4 c. fresh mint leaves (optional)

Instructions

In a small skillet over medium-high heat, toast pine nuts until golden, about 3 minutes, shaking pan to ensure even cooking. Set aside. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in jam, sugar, vinegar, salt, cinnamon, and 3/4 cup water, and bring to a simmer. Add carrots; bring to a simmer, then cook, covered, 10 minutes. Increase heat to medium high, uncover, and continue cooking, swirling pan to ensure even cooking, until liquid has reduced to a glaze and carrots are tender, about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat, add apricots, and stir well to coat with glaze. Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with pine nuts, scallions, and mint. Garnish with mint sprigs. Serve immediately.
