Directions

Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 9x13 inch casserole dish with coconut oil cooking spray.

In a large pot add the cut up carrots, cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil on medium heat for approximately 20 minutes or until carrots are fork tender. Drain and add the carrots to either a food processor or blender.

Blend on medium-low speed until pureed. Add in the melted coconut oil, coconut milk, cinnamon, baking powder, salt and vanilla. Pulse until combined.

Add the almond flour, a little bit of stevia (if desired) and the eggs. Blend on low until a nice smooth puree is formed.

Spread the carrot mixture into the casserole dish. Top with the toasted almonds.

Bake for approximately 35 minutes. Enjoy!Protein: 0 Fat: 3/4 Veg: 1 Fruit: 0
