  • 🍶 0.25 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 💧 0.25 cup water
  • 🥡 2 Tbsp tamari

  • ♨ 0.25 tsp liquid smoke
  • 🧄 0.25 tsp garlic powder
  • 🧅 0.25 tsp onion powder
  • 🧂 0.25 tsp pepper

📝 Instructions

Step 1

Peel the carrots, trim the ends, and cut them to the length of your whole-grain hot dog buns.

Step 2

Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and cook for 5 to 8 minutes, until tender but not mushy. Drain the carrots in a colander and put them under cold running water. This shocks them and prevents them from getting any softer.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, water, tamari, molasses, liquid smoke, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper. Transfer the marinade to a large zip top bag and add the cooled carrots. Toss gently to coat. Refrigerate overnight.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 5

Remove the carrots from the marinade and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until heated through and slightly browned.

Step 6

Serve the carrots in the hot dog buns with your choice of toppings.
