Add ginger and lemon zest and whisk again.

Add remaining ingredients to the large bowl with flour and toss to coat carrots, raisins and walnuts with flour mixture.

Add wet ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.

Roll dough into golfball-sized balls and place on baking sheet. Press down slightly. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
