This is a simple side dish that has lots of flavor.

• 1 lb. carrots, sliced into 1/2 inch coins
• 1 shallot, minced
• 1 tbs. garlic, minced
• 1/2 c. salted butter
• 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
• 1 tsp. ground black pepper
• 1 tsp. lavender buds

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. In a saucepan, melt the butter. Add the shallot and garlic and cook until fragment and the shallots are tender. Add the salt, pepper, and lavender and stir to combine. Toss the carrots with the butter sauce.

Place carrots in a single layer on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the carrots are tender when pierced with a fork.
