Carrot Cake Raw Balls
Carrot cake is one of the most popular cakes in Sweden. But when you eat according to the autoimmune protocol (AIP), you exclude some of the ingredients in the classic cake recipe.
That’s the background to this alternative recipe of carrot cake, wich is made AIP compliant.
These raw balls are gluten-free, sugar-free, nut-free and milk-free ( like all the recipes within AIP) and contains grated carrots, spices and and tigernut flour. Tigernuts are, despite the name, not nuts, but rather edible tubers. They are rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals and of course suitable for those who have a nut allergy.
