    This Carrot Cake Muesli Slice is a great way to smuggle some extra veggies into the kids!

    Carrot Cake Muesli Slice Recipe

    This Carrot Cake Muesli Slice recipe is inspired by my Mum’s Classic Muesli Slice recipe which is a staple in our house.  I decided to try and make this carrot cake version after enjoying a gorgeous piece of carrot cake while out with friends in an attempt to still enjoy a healthier version of one of my favourite cakes.

    Carrot Cake Muesli Slice Recipe

    I made this recipe while the boys were outside playing so that they didn’t see that I was adding carrots, however this is certainly a great recipe for the kids to help you make too.  To keep it school friendly I didn’t add walnuts, however you can add them if you like.

    This slice is soft, chewy and a little crumbly and the perfect way to satisfy my Carrot Cake cravings in a guilt free manner.  After a close examination of this ‘special muesli slice’ the boys both tried it and gave it a big thumbs up – thank goodness!

      Hi is there a gluten free way of cooking it?
      I have found some gluten free oats but wondering what flour would work in place or could I use almond meal?

        Hi Lisa, you could try using gluten free flour, I haven’t tried it with almond meal but I think it should work 🙂
