Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease baking sheets or line with parchment paper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and egg until well combined, about 1 minute. (1 minute)

03

Step
2 mins

Add the shredded carrots, water, and orange zest to the bowl. Mix until the ingredients are evenly distributed. (2 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

In the same bowl, add the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (2 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Drop the cookie dough by rounded teaspoonfuls, about 2 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets. (5 minutes)

06

Step
10 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden brown. (10 minutes)

07

Step
10 mins

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. (10 minutes)

08

Step
5 mins

Optional: Drizzle with melted white chocolate or cream cheese icing. Allow the icing to set before serving. (5 minutes)

For best results, use finely shredded carrots to ensure even distribution throughout the cookies.
Do not overmix the dough, as this can result in tough cookies.
For a nuttier flavor, add 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans to the dough.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
