These carrots make a great substitute for mashed potatoes, and the Vitamin A content is much higher. I use these when a meal already has a high-carbohydrate component. I usually have to double the recipe when serving more than 3 or 4 people.

Ingredients For golden carrot whip

  • 1 lb
    baby carrots, peeled
  • salted water to cover
  • 2-4 Tbsp
    honey, sorghum, brown sugar, or maple syrup
  • 1/3 c
    whipping cream
  • 1 pinch
    salt, to taste

How To Make golden carrot whip

  • 1
    Cook carrots in boiling salted water until they are very soft. They should pierce easily with a fork, just like potatoes when you cook for mashing. This may take 30 or more minutes. Drain well.
  • 2
    Place cooked carrots in mixing bowl. Add the honey or syrup and MASH WELL with a potato masher. Start with the smaller amount of sweetener and taste before adding more.
  • 3
    With a mixer, whip in the cream in a slow stream. The whipped carrots will not be as smooth as whipped potatoes, but the taste will be wonderful! Taste and add salt if desired.
  • 4
    When uniformly mixed, transfer carrots to serving dish. If you use a microwave-safe dish, you can make these a little ahead of time and reheat before placing on the table.
