To prepare your flax eggs, add Ground Flaxseed (2 Tbsp) to Water (1/3 cup), stir well, and let sit for 5 minutes.
3.
Add Carrots (4) to the bowl of a food processor, pulse 10-15 seconds, or until carrots are chopped fine.

Author's Notes
If using something other than Medjool dates, you may want to soak them in water for 10 minutes, then drain them before using them.
If you don’t have garbanzo bean flour, you can substitute it with ground oat flour for gluten-free, or regular AP or wheat flour.
I like to use refined coconut oil for baking when I don’t want the coconut flavor to come through, you can substitute with unrefined, but you’ll likely have somewhat of a coconut flavor added.
