Ingredient Notes

• Carrot – The carrot needs to be very finely grated to give the balls the right consistency.
• Cashew butter – We love the flavor of cashew in this recipe, but you can use any kind of nut butter to make these carrot cake balls.
• Powdered monk fruit – If you only have granulated monk fruit, pulse it in the food processor until it reaches the consistency of confectioner’s sugar.
• Ground pecans – Also called “pecan flour”, this gives the carrot cake balls a delicious nutty flavor.

Easy Instructions

Combine the ingredients:

First, combine cashew butter with vanilla and cinnamon. Now mix in powdered monk fruit and grated carrot. Stir in the ground pecans. Once they’re fully incorporated, add the coconut flour.

Knead the mixture a few times with your hands. A soft dough will form.

Roll:

Use your hands to pinch off small sections of the dough. Roll them into balls. You should have enough dough to make about 24 balls, depending on how large you choose to roll them.

Serving:

You can enjoy these carrot cake balls right away or let them chill in the refrigerator first. They stay moist in the fridge and taste delicious cold.

Tips and Tricks

• Love coconut with your carrot cake? Roll the balls in unsweetened shredded coconut flakes before serving.
• Check the label on your nut butter to ensure no added sugars.
• Store carrot cake balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
