Pulse the walnuts in a food processor or blender until finely crushed; move them to a large bowl. Whisk the oat flour, baking soda, cinnamon, cream of tartar, and salt together with the walnuts.

Puree the carrots in a food processor; transfer to a separate bowl. Whisk the orange juice, water, egg, and walnut oil with the pureed carrots until smooth; stir this into the dry ingredients to form a rich, hearty batter. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.

Heat a small amount of canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Tilt the skillet to coat the cooking surface with the oil.

Whisk the batter again. Use a 1/4-cup measuring cup to scoop the batter, but do not fill the cup. Drop small portions of the batter into the skillet.

Cook the pancakes until the edges begin to look dry, 3 to 5 minutes; flip and continue cooking until the other side is browned, 3 to 5 minutes more.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe
easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.
The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.
Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.
Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
