Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

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

1/2 cup almond flour

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

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 ground nutmeg

1/4 cup raisins or chopped walnuts (optional, for added texture)

Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare Ingredients: Begin by finely grating the carrot and measuring out all the ingredients in advance. This will streamline the process and ensure you have everything ready for mixing.

    Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the rolled oats, almond flour, shredded coconut, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Use a whisk or spoon to mix thoroughly until all the dry components are evenly incorporated.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the finely grated carrots with the maple syrup (or honey), peanut butter (or almond butter), and vanilla extract. Stir these ingredients together until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

        Combine Both Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Use a spatula or your hands to thoroughly combine both mixtures. The texture should be sticky enough to hold together. If the mixture feels too crumbly, add a bit more nut butter or syrup; if it’s overly wet, mix in a touch more almond flour.

          Add Optional Ingredients: If you choose, gently fold in the raisins or chopped walnuts at this stage for an extra layer of flavor and texture.

            Shape the Bliss Bites: With your hands, take small portions of the mixture and roll them into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Place each ball onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

              Chill the Bites: Refrigerate the rolled balls for at least 30 minutes. Chilling will help them firm up and allow the flavors to meld beautifully.

                Serve & Store: Enjoy your Carrot Cake Bliss Bites chilled from the fridge! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for longer lasting enjoyment.
