Ingredients

1 Cup Almond flour

⅓ Cup Unsweetened coconut flakes

½ Cup Artisana Coconut Butter, softened

¼ Cup Artisana Organic Raw Pecan Butter with Cashews

½ Cup Shredded carrot

¼ Cup Low-carb granulated sweetener, ground in a spice grinder (see Note)

1 Teaspoon Ground cinnamon

⅛ Teaspoon Ground ginger

⅛ Teaspoon Ground nutmeg

⅛ Teaspoon Ground cardamon

Pinch of Salt

Instructions

1. Add all the ingredients to a food processor and process until fully combined, about 30 seconds, scraping down the sides if necessary. Scoop a tablespoon amount of mixture into your hand and roll into a ball. Continue for the rest of the dough. You should get approximately 16 small cake bites.

2. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

3. Note: Grinding the sweetener in a spice grinder into more of a powder texture will ensure there are no large granules throughout the cake bites, creating a smooth texture.
