I think I got this recipe from "The Maker's Diet" by Jordan Rubin. It's pretty good and it is raw, but with the honey it is not vegan. You could always substitute sweeteners to make it vegan.

Tips:
- To make the perfect raw carob chips, start with high-quality carob powder. Look for a powder that is organic, fair trade, and unsweetened.
- If you are using a blender, be sure to blend the ingredients until they are very smooth. This will help to prevent the chips from being gritty.
- If you are using a food processor, be sure to pulse the ingredients until they are well combined. This will help to prevent the chips from becoming too oily.
- The chips can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- You can also freeze the chips for up to 6 months. To freeze the chips, place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour. Then transfer the chips to an airtight container and freeze for up to 6 months.
Conclusion:
Raw carob chips are a delicious and healthy snack that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a good source of fiber, antioxidants, and minerals. Raw carob chips are also a good alternative to chocolate chips, as they are naturally caffeine-free and have a lower sugar content.
