  • Total Time: 1 hour 15 minutes (includes chilling time)
  • Yield: 18 bites 1x

Ingredients

Scale

4 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

1/4 tsp ground ginger

1 cup fine almond flour

1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 cup finely shredded carrots

1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions

1. 1. Ensure cream cheese and butter are thoroughly softened at room temperature. Finely shred carrots.

2. 2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, softened butter, powdered sweetener, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

3. 3. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger; mix until well combined.

4. 4. Fold in almond flour and shredded coconut until just combined.

5. 5. Gently fold in shredded carrots and optional chopped nuts until evenly distributed. Mixture will be thick and slightly sticky.

6. 6. Cover bowl and refrigerate for at least 30-60 minutes until firm.

7. 7. Using a small cookie scoop or hands, roll about 1 tablespoon of mixture into smooth balls.

8. 8. Optional: roll balls in extra shredded coconut or chopped nuts.

9. 9. Place bites on a parchment-lined plate and refrigerate for another 15-30 minutes to firm up. Serve chilled.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese and butter are at room temperature for a smooth mixture. Finely shred carrots for best texture. Do not skip the initial chilling time; it makes rolling easier. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5-7 days. Freeze for up to 3 months. Dairy-free: use dairy-free cream cheese and coconut butter. Nut-free: substitute almond flour with sunflower seed flour. Adjust sweetener to taste.
