Before you start

A blender or food processor will be very useful for this recipe.

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 175ºC/350ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Boil the carrot until fork-tender about 15 min.
  3. Put the tofu, cooked carrot, syrup, oil and vanilla in a food processor, then mix until blended.
  4. In a large bowl mix the dry ingredients. Add the tofu mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until dough becomes smooth.
  5. Using a tablespoon, shape the dough into 24 small balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Press lightly on each ball to flatten it.
