Ingredients:

• 5-6 medium carrots

• 1 cup pecans

• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (ACV)

• 1/4 cup chia seeds

• 1/4 cup shredded dried coconut

• 2 pitted dates

• 1/4 to 1/3 cup purified water

• 1 teaspoon sea salt

• 2 teaspoons African Firey Rub (same spice used for bread and cheese posted earlier)

• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Preparation:

1. Start by grinding the carrots into a pulp using a food processor.

2. Add the pecans to the food processor and mix well with the carrot pulp.

3. Next, incorporate the remaining ingredients, starting with the apple cider vinegar.

4. Slowly add purified water while mixing to achieve the desired consistency. The mixture should hold together but not be too wet.

5. Add the sea salt, African Firey Rub, and cinnamon. Mix thoroughly to distribute the spices evenly.

6. Using an ice cream scoop, large spoon, or your hands, scoop out portions of the mixture and shape them into patties.

7. Place the patties on dehydrator trays. If you prefer a more moist burger, dehydrate for about 8-10 hours, flipping them over halfway through. For a crisper patty with longer shelf life, dehydrate for a longer duration.

8. Once ready, serve the Spicy Carrot Burgers warm or cold. Get creative and enjoy them as a salad topper, a meaty component of your favorite sandwich, or as a classic burger.
