I was really happy as my purpose of making Quick and Easy No Bake Carrot Cake Bites full of carrot cake flavors was served.
Quick and Easy No Bake Carrot Cake Bites
For making these Quick and Easy No Bake Carrot Cake Bites you will need Medjool dates, rolled oats, coconut flakes, chopped walnuts and of course grated carrot. To impart carrot cake flavors, I added some nutmeg powder, cinnamon powder, and vanilla extract. To enhance it’s taste further, I added some cream cheese to the mixture. Step-by-step instructions are given below.
Helpful Tips
- Use Medjool dates as these are soft in texture and will make the food processor’s job easy. If you don’t find Medjool dates, soak hard dates in lukewarm water for some time to make them soft.
- Use toasted rolled oats in these kinds of recipes if you don’t like the raw flavor from the oats.
- If you are not using organic carrots, always wash and peel the carrots before using them. The peel typically has a good amount of pesticides in them. Using a Y-peeler is a quick way to get your veggies peeled. This is made of stainless steel, is dishwasher safe, and even comes with a warranty.
These are so convenient for snacking–simply pop one into your mouth whenever you feel like having one!
