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.
