TIPS
- Grate Finely: Use a fine grater for a smooth and well-integrated carrot texture.

- Double Batch: It makes more and stores for quick, nourishing snacks for the whole week.
VARIATIONS
- Add Coconut: Mix in shredded coconut for texture and tropical flavour.
- Nut-Free Option: Use sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter.
