This recipe for raw Carrot Cake Cookies has been exclusively created by Livia’s Kitchen to celebrate Zootropolis out now on Blu-ray & DVD and donated to London Mums.

 

Cookie:

• 7 squidgy medjool dates
• 150g carrot (peeled and with the ends chopped off)
• 3 teaspoons cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla powder
• 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil
• 4 tablespoons ground flax
• 150g rolled oats
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup
• 60g raisins
• 100g pecans

Middle:

• 3 tablespoons cashew butter
• 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla powder

Method:

• Once the carrots are peeled, either grate them or cut them into chunks and add them to the food processor, pulsing until they are finely chopped.

• Squeeze the liquid out of the carrot and then return to the processor with all of the ingredients except for raisins and pecans.

• Blend until the mix is coming together.

• Add in the pecans and raisins and pulse them through the mix.

• Set this aside to firm up slightly and in another bowl, mix taught all of the ingredients for the middle.

• Roll the cookie mixture into small cookie shapes and then sandwich two together with the nut butter mix. Repeat until you have used all of your mixture up.
