Carrot Sweet Potato Almond Cookies are soft, chewy and flavorful. Along with being nutrient dense it’s a holiday perfect indulgence.
I always try to bake desserts at home that contain balanced nutrition, fiber, are very healthy and of course fall within my calorie limits.
How to make Carrot Sweet Potato Almond Cookies
- For this recipe, firstly, I combined sweet potatoes because of its delicious taste and wonderful texture that helps in binding cookies. This makes these cookies gluten free for everyone to relish.
- Next, with carrots I added lots of Vitamin A that predominantly helps to improved eye-sight.
- Then, I used almond flour to add protein to my cookies. Almond flour has a subtle sweet buttery taste that does not let you miss calorie laden butter. To make it simple and quick.
- Finally, I combined all the ingredients (except almond flour, baking powder and salt) in the food processor and ground it smooth.
- Later, I folded all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and baked the cookies in the preheated oven.
- Once done, I turned off the oven and took these out of it. Cooled them and decorated with sprinkles.
These aromatic Carrot Sweet Potato Almond Cookies increased my cravings for desserts and made me impatient while they were baking.
I devoured every bit of these cookies. I loved them so much that I made an entire meal out of these cookies, knowing fully well that they are bursting not only with taste but with health too!
Enjoy these cookies all year round. These require no pre-planning at all!
