7 steps

  • Preheat the oven.

  • In a bowl, combine the date puree, applesauce and egg.

  • Add the pure vanilla extract, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, zest of 2 oranges and salt. Wait for a light frothing to occur (just for fun), then mix well.

  • Mix in the finely grated carrot, flour, wheat germ, walnuts and dried currants until combined.

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat – otherwise, everything will stick.

  • Drop spoonfuls of dough to create beautifully round energy cookies. Decorate as desired.

  • Bake for the time indicated. Transfer the baked cookies to a cooling rack, and bask in their mouthwatering aroma. Enjoy them on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays…

History

A carrot cake-style energy cookie? You bet. This simple recipe with NO REFINED SUGAR is a healthy take on my grandma’s carrot cake. And why does it have such a funny name? Because when I was at university, every week I ate so many carrots that the palms of my hands turned an “orangey” colour, the reason being the beta-carotene in carrots. Hahaha! The Self-Tanner cookie is a totally guilt-free indulgence, bien sûr.

High in fibre and warmth. The Self-Tanner cookie is a snack, a dessert, and you can even eat them for breakfast! Never has a vegetable felt so comforting. Long live intuitive cooking!
