Hey foodies!
These are really delicious and easy to make. It is also a great recipe if you have left over rice pudding on hand and want to make something different out of it. Together with the egg everything sticks perfectly together, so you are able to fry them in a pan with some butter to make them even more delicious. The carrots give an awesome carrot cake like flavour and above all they provide a lovely texture to these cakes.
