Cooking Directions

  • Stir the carrots, 1 cup broth and the brown sugar in a 6-quart slow cooker.
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for 3 1/2 hours or until the carrots are tender.  Stir the remaining broth and the cornstarch in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth.  Stir the cornstarch mixture, marmalade, butter and sage in the cooker.
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for 30 minutes.  Stir and season to taste.  Serve immediately or keep on WARM for up to 3 hours.  The sauce will continue to thicken on WARM, so add more broth, if needed, until desired consistency.
