Carrot Cookies

fullsizerenderThese ‘cookies’ have nuts, carrots and coconut…all healthful foods. If your kids like this, you can feel good about feeding it to them.

Ingredients:

3 carrots

2 tablespoons honey

1/2 cup walnuts (crushed)

2 tablespoons cashew butter

2/3 cups oats

1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

1 tablespoon coconut flakes

Directions:

Peel the carrots and put them in the food processor until they are processed into small flakes. Mix the carrots and all the other ingredients together in a bowl. Mix thoroughly, then spoon out into golf ball shaped servings. No baking. Enjoy!

This recipe was inspired by a post on Super Healthy Kids. But I substituted several of their ingredients for others that I like better, rearranged the proportions, and I added coconut (yum).
