Like any other no-bake energy ball type recipe, these scrumptious carrot cake bites require a food processor. Let’s take a closer look:

  1. prepare carrots by shredding with a grater.
  2. In your food processor pulse pecans, almonds and coconut flour.
  3. Add in your shredded carrots, dates, coconut oil, maple syrup, and spices. Process for about 2-3 minutes until you have a sticky dough.
  4. Add in your shredded coconut and process just enough to mix everything evenly.
  5. Shape them into 1 tbsp bite sized balls and roll them in chopped pecans. If you prefer, you can dip them in melted coconut butter/maple glaze or some chocolate.
  6. Store in the fridge and enjoy your amazing creations!

These energy bites are perfect for a quick snack without having to spend hours in the kitchen. They are easy, they are delicious, and they are wholesome!
