How to Make Carrot Cake Overnight Oats

  • Mix all ingredients in a bowl or a jar. This recipe calls for 2 portions, so you can easily throw them into 2 separate mason jars.
  • Make sure they’re well combined. That’s the key to this recipe. We want to make sure the chia seeds are well incorporated.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or put the lid on the Mason jar. Place in the fridge overnight to set
  • Enjoy the next morning and add the toppings!

Which Oats to Choose for Overnight Oats?

We like using rolled oats (old-fashioned oats) to obtain a great texture. You can also choose quick oats, but you won’t get the same texture. That’s why we recommend using rolled oats.

What’s in Our Carrot Cake Overnight Oats?

  • Oats: Please choose rolled oats to make the base of our overnight oats.
  • Milk: you can pick any milk you want, either plant-based milk or cow milk. For this recipe, we recommend using oat milk or almond milk.
  • Greek yogurt: more proteins to your breakfast that will make the oats creamy. Choose plain greek yogurt.
  • Shredded carrots & raisins: there’s no carrot cake without shredded carrots!
  • Maple syrup: the sweetener to our breakfast. You can also use honey.
  • Chia seeds: a classic ingredient in this recipe that helps thicken the oats.
  • Vanilla: we use vanilla extract.
  • Spices: a mix of cinnamon & nutmeg. 
  • Salt: a pinch of salt to balance all the flavours.

Store in the Fridge

Overnight oats will last in the fridge for up to 5 days. Please make sure to put them in an airtight container or Mason jar.
