Healthier Carrot Oatmeal Cookies

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

2. Beat honey and coconut oil in a large bowl with an electric mixer until creamy. Beat in carrots and eggs until combined.

3. Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl; stir into carrot mixture until well combined. Stir in oats, raisins, and walnuts until evenly combined.

4. Drop large spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets and flatten with a fork, if desired.

5. Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden, about 15 minutes. Cool on the cookie sheet for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Cook's Notes:

You can use butter instead of coconut oil and any dried fruit in place of raisins. If you like, use half whole wheat flour and half all-purpose flour.

I love cinnamon, so I use a lot. If you prefer a less spiced taste, reduce the amount of cinnamon.
