This was one of mom's perennial holiday dishes for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
1.9.20 Don’t let the word “horseradish” scare you away from this recipe. Its flavor is there, but is subtle. I didn’t boil the carrots, rather, steamed them in the microwave for 3 minutes and reserved the necessary water for the sauce. When you add the water to the mayonnaise mixture, your sauce will be fairly thin, but it thickens up after coming out of the oven. I left my carrots in the oven for 8 minutes to get some color on the breadcrumbs (I used Italian panko). We LUV carrots in this house, and this was not only a quick and easy side dish, but most importantly, a very tasty one. Thanks for sharing your recipe, it will be made again, we thoroughly it!
Read MoreWe had mixed reviews on this recipe. I made it exactly as written and we thought it had a strong horseradish taste. I used jarred horseradish which made the sauce grainy. If I will make this again (when my daughter is not around), I'll use a cream style horseradish instead.

Kiss your mom Pete for allowing you to share her recipe! This was awesome! Followed exactly except misread the breadcrumb instructions; used closer to 3/4 c and added them + drizzled butter on top not realizing this was to be baked without the first 15 min. Oops! But this “mistake” turned out well; the crumbs browned perfectly while some bubbly carrot mix underneath peeked through. The horseradish is a minor, underlying flavor: zesty and creamy is accurate name! Thanks for sharing! Will absolutely make again!
My wife and I enjoyed this recipe and will definitely be making it again. We followed the recipe and liked it a lot.
