Carrot Cake Overnight Oatmeal

So easy and so delicious!

You can make this at night before going to bed and have a full breakfast waiting for you in the morning, and for the next day, too!

Plus, it lets you get a full serving of veggies at breakfast, without even realizing it. The trick is to grate the carrots very finely so they incorporate into the mixture.

The recipe calls for raisins but feel free to mix up the fruit. Dried cranberries or blueberries, anything you like. Dried or fresh.

  • Yield: 2 Servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (85 g) organic, gluten-free rolled oats
  • ½ cup (60 g) carrot, finely grated
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp allspice
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp raisins
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 cup (250 ml) non-dairy milk
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)
  • ¼ cup (30 g) walnuts or pecans

Instructions

  1. Place all the ingredients in a medium bowl, and mix well.
  2. Divide the mixture into 2 mason jars or other serving container. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
  3. When it’s time to eat, stir in the optional protein powder and additional milk if it’s too thick. Top with nuts for added taste. Enjoy!

Notes

Note: To kick up the protein content in this, try stirring in some of your favorite protein powder. Some brands to try include Sun Warrior, Garden of Life and OWYN. (Make your own recommendation here if you have one!).
