Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup finely grated carrots (about 1 medium carrot)

1/2 cup almond flour

1/4 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1/4 cup maple syrup or honey

1/4 cup natural peanut butter or almond butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

1/4 cup raisins or chopped walnuts (optional)

Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prep the Ingredients: Start by finely grating the carrots and measuring out all the ingredients to ensure everything is ready to go.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, shredded coconut, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until well mixed.

      Add Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix the grated carrots, maple syrup (or honey), peanut butter (or almond butter), and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

        Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Use a spatula or your hands to combine everything until well incorporated. The mixture should be sticky and hold together. If it’s too crumbly, add a touch more nut butter or syrup; if too wet, add a bit more almond flour.

          Incorporate Add-Ins: If desired, fold in raisins or chopped walnuts for added texture and flavor.

            Shape the Energy Balls: With your hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter). Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

              Chill: Refrigerate the energy balls for at least 30 minutes to set. This will help them hold their shape and enhance the flavors.

                Serve & Store: Enjoy your Carrot Cake Bliss Bites straight from the fridge! You can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze them for longer storage.
