No-Bake Carrot Cake Bites
Ingredients:1 1/2 cups finely grated carrots
1/2 cup raw almonds
1/2 cup raw walnuts
1 1/2 cups medjool, pitted (like this)
1 tbsp pure maple syrup (like this)
3/4 cup dried coconut shreds (I use THIS brand)
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp cardamom
pinch of salt
coconut whip cream frosting (recipe HERE)
Directions:
- Begin by grating your carrots on the smaller side of a box grater. Gently squeeze out the excess liquid from the grated carrots.
- Once the carrots have been squeezed dry, measure them until you have about 1 1/2 cups.
- Next, in a food processor, grind the almonds and walnuts until they begin to turn into a flour, but not so much that they turn into nut butter.
- Add in coconut, spices, and salt and pulse for 10 seconds.
- Next, add the carrots, syrup and dates to the food processor, and mix until the dates become well chopped.
- Using a cupcake tin with plastic wrap or wax paper strips, place about 2-3 tbsp of mixture in each cupcake hole and press down for even hardening.
- Place in freezer for 1 hour to harden.
- Cover with coconut whipped cream.
