Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats, grated carrots, almond flour, chopped walnuts, raisins, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir well to blend all dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, honey, vanilla extract, and melted coconut oil until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is well incorporated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the edges start to pull away from the sides of the pan.
Remove from the oven and let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
Once cooled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into squares or bars.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
