Looking for a new way to sneak in some veggies into your baking? I have the perfect recipe for you. These cookies are loaded with carrots and a whole lot of cinnamon spice! YUMM! These cookies are super moist and chewy and are made with healthy, wholesome ingredients. They are the perfect snack, dessert and are super yummy crumbled on top of your yogurt bowl! I love to use half oats and half flour in my baking to add more texture to my treats! I always use large flake oats for even more texture! To make these cookies vegan, substitute the egg in this recipe for 1 flax egg. To substitute 1 egg, combine 1 tbsp ground flax with 3 tbsp of boiling water and let sit for 5-6 minutes.
