  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  3. In a large bowl, beat together granulated sugar and eggs until creamy, then mix in buttermilk, avocado oil, and vanilla extract.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  5. Fold in grated carrots and chopped walnuts until evenly distributed.
