Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup grated carrots Pack tightly for maximum moisture
  • 1/2 cup almond flour Use finely ground for better texture
  • 1/2 cup applesauce Use vegan-friendly applesauce for vegan option

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, grated carrots, almond flour, applesauce, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.
  3. If desired, fold in walnuts or raisins for added texture and flavor.
  4. Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart for even baking.
  5. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon to ensure they bake evenly.
Baking

  2. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
