          Instructions<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

          Wet Ingredients<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Preheat the oven<\/strong>\u00a0to 360\u00baF (180\u00baC), conventional mode, with upper and lower heat. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Combine the wet ingredients<\/strong>: In a bowl, mix the almond butter, maple syrup, coconut sugar, and egg with a wooden spoon until well combined. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            Dry Ingredients<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. Mix the dry ingredients<\/strong>: In a separate bowl, combine the oat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder, ginger powder, and salt.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Combine wet and dry ingredients<\/strong>: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, followed by the grated carrot. Mix everything well until fully incorporated.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              Assemble<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. Scoop the batter<\/strong>: Using a 1.5 tablespoon-sized ice cream scoop, place the dough on the prepared baking tray. Lightly wet your finger and press the scooped dough to a thickness of about \u00bd-1 cm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              2. Bake<\/strong>: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until the cookies turn golden brown and are fully cooked. Let them cool completely on a rack.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                Glaze<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                1. Prepare the glaze<\/strong>: In a bowl, mix the light cream cheese, maple syrup, and lemon juice using a spoon until smooth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                2. Glaze the cookies<\/strong>: Once the cookies are completely cool, spoon about 1 teaspoon of glaze onto each cookie and spread it evenly. Optionally, sprinkle with some chopped pecans for added texture and flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                  Notes<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
                    \n
                  • Accurate oven temperature<\/strong>: Use a portable oven thermometer to ensure your oven is at the correct temperature.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  • Measuring ingredients<\/strong>: Use the scoop and level method for cup measurements to ensure accuracy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  • Press the cookies<\/strong>: Make sure to press the cookies before baking; otherwise, they will rise too tall during baking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
