In a bowl, mix the dry ingredients - flour, oats, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate bowl whisk the egg, coconut oil, vanilla, and maple syrup. Mix well with a whisk until well combined. Add orange juice, orange zest, and ginger and mix again.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix. Finally, stir in the grated carrots, chopped walnuts, and dried cranberries. Mix gently with a spoon. Let the mixture sit for few minutes.
Preheat oven to 356F (180C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
With a scoop or spoon, scoop the dough, and place it on the baking sheet. Arrange the cookies 2-inches apart. Slightly flatten the dough with the spoon.
Bake 12-15 minutes until the edges of the cookies begin to brown. Remove cookies from the oven, and let them cool for few minutes on a baking sheet. Then transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
As a measure, I used UScup (240ml). * Make sure you use zest from the organic orange.
