Make the flax eggs and set aside.
In a large bowl, stir flour, sugar, cinnamon, ginger, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together.
Add oil, applesauce, flax eggs, and vanilla to that same bowl, stir, and set aside.
With the motor of your food processor running, add the carrots, apple, walnuts, and cranberries/raisins through the top and pulse for 15-20 seconds. Then, transfer mixture to the bowl with the batter and stir until everything is combined.
Line muffin tin with muffin liners, spray them with nonstick spray, then divide the batter evenly. Bake muffins for 18-23 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Transfer muffins to a cooling rack.
