Carrot Cookies With Whole Wheat Flour
Indulge in the goodness of these carrot cookies, which have the goodness of grated carrots, whole wheat flour and jaggery powder, with a cake-like texture which is simply irresistible!!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup Butter unsalted, softened
- 3/4 cup Jaggery powder
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 1/2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1/2 tsp Baking soda
- 1/2 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 cup Grated Carrots
- 1/2 cup Raisins
- 1/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degree F. Meanwhile, mix the butter and the jaggery powder till the jaggery powder is completely blended with the butter.
- Add in the egg to this mixture and stir till all the ingredients are uniformly mixed. Now add vanilla extract to the above mixture. The wet ingredients mixture is now ready.
- For the dry ingredients, mix in whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and ground cinnamon to the wet mixture. Add grated carrots to the final dough.
- Finally add the raisins and give it a good mix with hand. The dough will be a little loose at this stage, so it is advisable to put the dough in the fridge for around 1 hour.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Take around 2 tbsp of cookie dough and roll into a ball. Then flatten the dough ball and place on the baking tray. I was able to make 17 cookies with the prepared dough.
- Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes in the preheated oven (This will result in soft cakey cookies. If you want crispier cookies, bake for 2 more minutes).
- Remove the cookies from the oven, and allow them to cool for at least 5-10 minutes.
- The carrot cookies are now ready to be served warm or these can be stored in an air-tight container!! I refrigerated the cookies for around half an hour before finally storing them.

Notes
- Organic coconut palm sugar can be substituted with jaggery powder.
- Do not over mix the dough after adding dry ingredients.
