Whisk flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.

Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar together in another bowl until creamy. Add egg and vanilla extract; continue mixing until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in carrots, raisins, walnuts, and pineapple at low speed. Add flour mixture; beat until just combined.
