- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup wheat germ, 1/2 cup shredded coconut (optional), 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup applesauce, 1/2 cup grated carrots, and 2 large eggs.
- Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined.
- Add the oatmeal mixture and stir until evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
