How to Use Carrot Pulp in Baking

Asked Apr 08, 2020 by Ellen D.

My hubby makes a lot of carrot juice, and I'd love to use the pulp in baking. What is the ratio to substitute pulp for shredded carrots? I heard you use less pulp. Is there anything else to know about substituting pulp for shredded carrots when baking, whether it's cake, cookies, breads, etc? Thanks! (Sorry if I posted this twice. I'm learning how to post ;)

    Have you considered dehydrating the carrot pulp, then lightly grind in a spice grinder. You can then add the carrot powder to your recipes. I have been doing this with various veggies/fruits that I used to toss such as the peels from apples, cucumbers, zucchini, and ends of celery. It's a great way to add nutrition to recipes for picky eaters.
