Steps:
- Preheat the oven 375 degrees F.
- Whisk the oats, flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
- Combine the applesauce, coconut oil and maple syrup in a large bowl. Add the egg and vanilla and whisk to combine. Fold in the flour mixture until completely incorporated. Fold in the carrots.
- Using a 2-ounce ice cream scoop (or 2 tablespoons), scoop the dough onto a baking sheet (you should have about 12 cookies). Bake until the cookies are set and the bottoms are light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix the yogurt, confectioners' sugar and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl until smooth and can easily be drizzled (mixing in 1/2 teaspoon water at a time if needed).
- Transfer the wire rack to the baking sheet and drizzle the yogurt glaze over the cookies. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
