1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Add carrots, apple, banana, and apple juice and stir until combined. Drop by rounded tablespoons 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets, making about 24 cookies.
