Easy and so totally delicious, these little 7-ingredient Ginger Carrot Tartlets are a healthyish treat. They can easily be made vegan and are sure to be a hit with your friends and family ~ especially around the holiday season.

Ingredients

  • 5 carrots
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp cardamom
  • 1/8 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/8 tso ginger
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup whipped cream or coconut whipped topping
  • 15 mini phyllo shells
  • 4 pieces candied ginger optional

Instructions

  • Remove mini phyllo shells from freezer and let thaw on kitchen counter. If you'd like them extra crispy, you can bake them for 10 minutes or so - making sure they cool before you add in the filling.
  • Peel carrots and cut them into thirds and place them in a pan. Fill pan with water so carrots are submerged. Then place pan on stove top over high heat. Bring water to a boil, then cover and let carrots cook about 15 minutes or until carrots are soft when prodded with a fork.
  • Take cooked carrots off the stove and let cool. I mashed mine roughly to speed up the cooling. If the carrots are warm, then the whipped cream will just turn to liquid and the result will not be a fluffy carrot whipped filling.
  • When carrots are cool, add them into a deep bowl along with the cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, ginger, salt and maple syrup. Using an immersion blender (or handheld blender or even adding mix into a high speed blender) blend spiced carrots up well. 
  • Then, using a spatula, fold the whipped cream or coconut whipped topping into the spiced carrots.
  • Place this carrot filling into a plastic bag with a nozzle and pipe it into the mini phyllo dough shells.
  • Cut up candied ginger and sprinkle onto the filled Ginger Carrot Tartlets and enjoy.
