  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 30 servings

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 medium carrot, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup almond butter
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 cups flaked unsweetened coconut
  • 2 cups old fashioned oats
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (more or less to taste)
  • White chocolate chips (optional, about 1/4 cup)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Carrots: Add the peeled and chopped carrot chunks to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, yielding about 1/2 cup of finely processed carrot.
  2. Process Dry Ingredients: Remove the carrots and set aside. Add the old fashioned oats and flaked unsweetened coconut to the processor and pulse until they are coarsely ground, creating a textured base for the bites.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Add the almond butter, pure maple syrup, salt, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and the finely chopped carrots back into the food processor. Pulse until a smooth, sticky dough-like mixture forms, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides and push the mixture together with a spatula as needed.
  4. Add Chocolate Chips: If desired, add the white chocolate chips to the mixture and pulse briefly to chop them evenly and incorporate them throughout the dough.
  5. Shape the Bites: Roll the mixture into small bite-sized balls using your hands, about 1-inch in diameter works well for snacking.
  6. Store Properly: Place the carrot cake bites in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator or freezer to keep them firm and fresh. Enjoy as a nutritious treat anytime.

Notes

  • These bites are best stored chilled or frozen to maintain their texture and freshness.
  • You can substitute almond butter with any nut or seed butter of your choice.
  • Adjust cinnamon quantity to taste for more or less spice.
  • Omitting the white chocolate chips keeps the bites vegan and adds a pure carrot cake flavor.
  • This recipe yields about 30 small bites, perfect for meal prepping snacks.
