Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, grated carrots, almond flour, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Mix until all dry ingredients are evenly incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, maple syrup, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract until thoroughly mixed.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredient mixture and stir until just combined.
Fold in the chopped walnuts and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Once cooked, remove the pan from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before cutting it into bars.
Cut into 12 equal bars and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
