Notes: Can frost with confectioner's glaze (3/4 or 1 cup of confectioner's sugar mixed with 1-2 tblsp. milk). Can add chopped pecans if nut allergies are not an issue.
Ingredients
3/4 cup (90 grams) white whole-wheat flour or whole-wheat pastry flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 cup (55 grams) mild-flavored cooking oil (like canola or melted coconut oil)
1/3 cup (75 grams) dark brown sugar
1 large egg (50 grams)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup (110 grams) shredded carrots
1 medium apple, peeled and diced into 1/16" cubes
1 1/2 cups (122 grams) rolled oats
1/2 cup (40 grams) raisins
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with cooking oil.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
In a separate large bowl, mix together cooking oil, brown sugar, egg and vanilla until well combined. Fold in shredded carrots and diced apple until blended. Add flour mixture, oats and raisins and stir gently until just combined.
Using a 1 tablespoon scoop, drop batter by the tablespoonful on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown around the edges.
Cool bites for a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling.
