No-Bake Carrot Cake Bites: Sweet, Healthy & Easy!
Carrot cake bites: master these delicious raw vegan treats in minutes. Perfect for a healthy snack or dessert with wholesome ingredients.
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
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (more or less to taste)
- white chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Add carrot chunks to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. (You should have a generous 1/2 cup.)
- Remove carrots and set aside. Add oats and coconut. Pulse until coarsely ground.
- Add all other ingredients, including the chopped carrots. Pulse until a smooth-ish, sticky "dough" forms. (You might have to push it down with a spatula a few times to help it along.)
- Add white chocolate chips and pulse until chopped into smaller pieces.
- Roll into balls. Store in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
- For extra spice, a pinch of nutmeg or ginger can be added alongside the cinnamon. - If the mixture is too sticky to roll, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes to firm up. - To keep your carrot cake bites fresh, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for up to a month.
