Instructions: In a food processor, combine shredded carrots, unsweetened shredded coconut, raw walnuts, dates, raisins, gluten-free rolled oats, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and a pinch of salt. Process the mixture until it becomes a sticky dough-like consistency. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Add melted coconut oil, pure maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the bowl.
