Description

Carrot Cake Overnight Oats have all the sweet, warm flavors of traditional carrot cake made with nutritious ingredients! Prepare them a day in advance for a quick breakfast, snack, or dessert you can enjoy straight from the fridge. 


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon creamy all natural almond butter
  • 1/2 cup grated carrot
  • 2 tablespoons crushed walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt


Instructions

  1. Add the Greek yogurt, almond milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and almond butter to a mixing bowl. Whisk together until well combined.
  2. Add the grated carrot, crushed walnuts, coconut, oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the mixing bowl and stir until well combined.
  3. Transfer the oats to large wide mouthed glass container with lid (like a weck jar/mason jar).
  4. Cover the container and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  5. After the oats have chilled, remove them from the fridge and give them a stir.
  6. Separate the oats into two different serving bowls or jars. Feel free to add an extra splash of milk if you want to thin the oats out a bit. Top the oats with your favorite toppings like a bit more greek yogurt, grated carrot, crushed walnuts, and cinnamon.
