Ingredients

• 1 cup chopped onion
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 2 pounds baby carrots
• 10 buttery round crackers, crushed
• ½ cup sugar
• 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Place the carrots and onion into a large saucepan and fill with about 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, then steam over medium heat until carrots are tender enough to pierce with a fork, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain and allow to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, sugar and cheese. Stir in the carrots and onion until evenly coated. Transfer to a casserole dish. Top with crumbled crackers.

Step 4

Bake for 20 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until sauce is bubbly and the top is toasted.
