Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups water
1 cup steel-cut oats
1 apple - peeled, cored, and chopped
½ cup shredded carrot
½ cup raisins
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground ginger
1 pinch salt
1 tablespoon butter
¾ cup chopped pecans
1 tablespoon brown sugar
½ cup plain yogurt

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a heavy, large saucepan, and stir in the oats. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook oats until they begin to thicken, about 10 minutes; mix in the apple, carrot, raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Let the oats simmer until tender, about 20 more minutes.
  • While the oats are simmering, melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and stir in the pecans. Toast the nuts until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 5 minutes, then sprinkle with brown sugar and stir until sugar has melted and coated the pecans.
  • Serve in bowls, each topped with about 2 tablespoons of the pecan mixture and a dollop of yogurt.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ½ cups loosely packed grated carrot ((~2 large carrots))
2 Tbsp flaxseed meal ((to make flax eggs))
5 Tbsp water ((to make flax eggs))
1/4 cup maple syrup ((or sub coconut nectar or agave nectar))
2 Tbsp melted coconut oil or avocado oil ((if avoiding oil, sub applesauce or omit))
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 ½ tsp ground cinnamon
2 cups dairy-free milk ((we used unsweetened almond milk))
2 cups gluten-free rolled oats
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped ((plus more for topping))
1/2 cup raisins ((plus more for topping))
1 Tbsp coconut sugar ((optional))
Dairy-free milk
Coconut sugar or maple syrup
Nut butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and grease an 8 x 8-inch baking dish with oil, or line with parchment paper.
  • Grate carrots using the large side of a box grater or the grating attachment on a food processor.
  • Prepare flax eggs in a large mixing bowl by mixing flaxseed meal and water and let rest for 5 minutes. Then add maple syrup, oil, salt, and cinnamon and whisk to combine.
  • Add dairy-free milk and whisk once more. Then add grated carrots, oats, nuts, and raisins, and stir to combine.
  • Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with additional walnuts and raisins (~2 Tbsp each). Sprinkle with coconut sugar for a "swirl" effect (optional).
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown, the edges are slightly caramelized, and it has some springiness in the center. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes in the pan.
  • Serve warm with desired toppings, such as warmed coconut milk or almond milk and a drizzle of maple syrup or nut butter.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator 3-4 days (or in the freezer for up to 1 month), though best when fresh. Reheat in a 350-degree F (176 C) oven or in the microwave until hot, adding more dairy-free milk as needed to moisten.

Tips:

  • Use a ripe banana: A ripe banana will add sweetness and moisture to your oatmeal. If you don't have a ripe banana, you can microwave it for a few seconds to soften it up.
  • Add your favorite spices: You can add a variety of spices to your carrot cake oatmeal to give it more flavor. Some popular choices include cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • Use a good quality maple syrup: Maple syrup is a natural sweetener that will add a delicious flavor to your oatmeal. Make sure to use a good quality maple syrup, as the cheaper brands can be very processed and have a bitter taste.
  • Don't overcook the oatmeal: Oatmeal is best when it is cooked just until it is tender. Overcooked oatmeal will be mushy and bland.

Carrot cake baked oatmeal is a delicious and healthy breakfast option that is perfect for a busy morning. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its sweet and spicy flavor, carrot cake baked oatmeal is a surefire hit with the whole family. Give it a try today!
