Crispy on the outside, soft and cheesy on the inside, these carrot bites are a kid-approved favorite that sneak in veggies in a fun, savory treat. This fun carrot recipe is from the feeding tiny bellies web site. A pro tip is to remove as much moisture from the carrots as possible. Excess moisture will result in an overmoist mixture that will cause the bites to be soggy.
You Will Need:
Box Grater
Bowl
Sieve or Cheese Cloth
Tablespoon Sized ice Cream Scoop
Baking Sheet
Parchment Paper
1 cup finely grated carrots
⅓ cup grated cheese
¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
1 egg
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp onion powder
¼ tsp salt (optional)
¼ tsp black pepper (optional)
What to Do:
1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
2. Shred the carrots using the smallest size hole on a box grater.
3. Place the carrots in a sieve and use the back of a spoon to press down on it to remove the moisture. Or simply use your hands or a towel to squeeze out as much moisture from the carrots as possible.
4. Add the carrots to a bowl along with the other ingredients. Mix well until combined.
5. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions and roll them into small balls. Place the balls onto a parchment paper-lined pan.
6. Bake for 15 minutes or until the edges are starting to turn slightly brown.
