– In a mixing bowl, mix together oats, grated carrots, protein powder, flaxseed, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt.
– Add in almond milk, applesauce, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir well to combine.
– Fold in chopped walnuts and raisins.
– Pour batter into prepared baking dish and bake for 45-50 minutes, until the top is golden brown. It will be a little soft but should be cooked through.
