CARROT CAKE BITES

Picture
Yield: 16 bites
Print Recipe
I make sure to always have a batch of no bake "cookies" in my refrigerator for a quick snack or sweet treat.  We LOVE these carrot cake bites that are sweetened with dates, high in protein, and have the delicious flavors of traditional carrot cake (without the sugar).  Best of all, no baking required!
Ingredients:
  • 2 medium carrots, shredded
  • ½ cup raw walnuts
  • ½ cup raw almonds
  • 5-10 dates, pits removed
  • 2 tbsp. ground flax seed
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ½ tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsweetened coconut  
Directions: 
  1. Peel the carrots, then shred them on the fine blade in the food processor (or can also grate them with a hand grater or box grater)
  2. Add walnuts and almonds to the food processor with the S blade and pulse into a fine meal. 
  3. Add the dates and flax seeds to the ground nuts and process until you have a dough-like consistency. 
  4. Stir in the carrots, nutmeg, ginger and cinnamon.
  5. Sprinkle the coconut onto a plate.  Form the dough into small balls and roll into the coconut.
  6. Place the bites into the refrigerator until firm. 
  7.  Keep in refrigerator up to 1 week (if they last that long)!
