About this recipe
Carrot Cake Cookies Thermomix TM7 recipes bring all the cosy spice of a classic carrot cake into a soft, chewy cookie you can bake in one tray. Instead of grating carrots by hand and creaming coconut oil with a wooden spoon, the all-in-one kitchen machine takes over: the integrated scale weighs the golden syrup and wholemeal flour straight into the bowl, and consistent mixing folds the sultanas and desiccated coconut through the dough evenly. These cookies suit a quick afternoon snack, a lunchbox filler or a sweet finish to a weeknight dinner, with warm cinnamon and juicy carrot in every bite. The wholemeal flour adds a nutty depth while the golden syrup gives chewy edges and soft centres. If you love searching for easy dessert or snack ideas that taste like cake but take half the effort, this Thermomix TM7 carrot cookie recipe deserves a spot on your baking list.
Preparation tips
- Grate the carrots finely just before mixing so they release moisture into the dough rather than sitting and becoming watery, which keeps the cookies chewy with visible carrot flecks rather than soggy.
- Scoop the cookie dough evenly onto the lined tray and flatten slightly, leaving space between each one, as the coconut oil causes them to spread during baking into lovely round shapes.
- Store the cooled cookies in an airtight tin with a slice of bread to keep the sultanas soft, or swap sultanas for chopped dates if you prefer a richer, caramel-like sweetness.
Recipe variations
- Make them gluten-free by replacing the wholemeal flour with a gluten-free self-raising blend; add a spoonful of ground almonds to keep the chewy texture and the nutty warmth alongside the coconut and cinnamon.
- For a festive winter version, stir in a pinch of mixed spice and orange zest, then drizzle the baked cookies with a simple icing made from lemon juice and icing sugar for a carrot-cake celebration feel.
