Description

A delicious no-bake breakfast inspired by carrot cake, featuring rolled oats soaked overnight with grated carrots, warm spices, and mix-ins for a creamy, flavorful start to the day.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 cups vanilla almond milk
  • 1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup finely grated carrots
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon raisins


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl or two mason jars, combine the oats, cinnamon, and nutmeg, whisking to distribute the spices evenly.
  2. Stir in the grated carrots, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, and almond milk until the mixture is uniform.
  3. Fold in the raisins, walnuts, and shredded coconut for that classic carrot cake texture.
  4. Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight to allow the oats to soften and the flavors to meld together.
  5. In the morning, top with an extra dollop of yogurt or a sprinkle of extra walnuts before serving cold.

Notes

  • This recipe can be made vegan by substituting the Greek yogurt with a plant-based alternative.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 3 days; stir before eating if separation occurs.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more maple syrup to taste.
