- To begin, preheat your oven to 350. Line two pans with parchment paper (or spray with non-stick spray).
- To a large mixing bowl, add your butter, brown sugar, and applesauce and cream them together with a mixer, for a minute (or till creamy). Add your vanilla and egg and briefly blend in. Then add your flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg and stir everything together till you have one smooth cookie dough. Add your oats, carrots, walnuts, coconut and raisins and fold them into your batter. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes.
- Using a large cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto your pans, evenly spaced apart (with no more than 12 cookies per pan). Press each cookie down so it's flat. Bake in the oven for 14-16 minutes, or till the edges and top are set.
- Let cool entirely before spreading frosting across the tops.
- Cream Cheese Frosting
- To a large mixing bowl, add your butter, cream cheese, and vanilla and beat them together with a mixer till smooth. Add your powdered sugar, one cup at a time, and slowly mix it in. It may take a couple minutes till the frosting blends together smooth.
- Spread across the tops of your cooled cookies. Add sprinkles if you'd like.
- Devour!

Yields: 15 items
Number of ingredients: 18
Ingredients:
- for the cookies
- 1 cup (100g) instant oats (measured like this and gluten-free if necessary)
- ¾ cup (90g) whole wheat or gluten-free* flour (measured like this)
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp (28g) coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 1 large egg, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup (120mL) pure maple syrup
- ¾ cup (70g) freshly grated carrot (about 2 medium, peeled first!)
- ¼ cup (61g) finely diced pineapple (fresh or canned in 100% juice and drained)
- 3 tbsp (30g) raisins
- 2 tbsp (14g) finely chopped pecans
- for the drizzle (optional)
- 1 tbsp (14g) Greek yogurt cream cheese, softened
- 1 ½ tsp nonfat milk
- 8-12 drops vanilla crème stevia, or to taste
How to cook:
- Whisk together the oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, egg, and vanilla. Stir in the maple syrup. Add in the flour mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Gently fold in the carrots, pineapple, raisins, and pecans. Chill the cookie dough for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 325°F, and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
- Drop the cookie dough into 15 rounded scoops onto the prepared sheet, and flatten to about half of their original height using a small spatula. Bake at 325°F for 11-14 minutes. Cool on the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Just before serving, prepare the drizzle by stirring together the cream cheese, milk, and stevia in a small bowl. Transfer the mixture to a zip-topped bag, cut off a tiny piece of one corner, and drizzle on top of the cooled cookies.
