  • Using a standing mixer or hand mixer, add maple syrup, almond extract, salt, baking soda and cinnamon and mix to combine.
  • Add 1/2 cup of almond flour to the mixer and combine. Once combined add another 1/2 cup. Repeat the process until 2 cups are combined.
  • Next add 1 tbsp coconut oil and mix slowly. Repeat for the next 2 tbsp of oil.
  • Last fold in the shredded coconut and carrots to the mixture by hand.
  • Using a medium sized ice cream scooper to scoop out 12 cookies onto the baking sheet.
  • Gently press cookies down with the palm of you hand onto the baking sheet to flatten as these will not spread.
