# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
02 - In a large bowl, combine rolled oats, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, baking powder, salt, chopped walnuts, and shredded coconut. Mix thoroughly to distribute spices evenly.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until fully incorporated and smooth.
04 - Stir grated carrots and raisins into the wet mixture until evenly distributed throughout the liquid mixture.
05 - Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Fold together gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
06 - Pour batter into the prepared 9x9-inch baking dish. Spread evenly with a spatula to ensure uniform thickness.
07 - Bake for 35 minutes until the center is firm and set, and the top is golden brown. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
08 - Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
