Ingredients:

2/3 cup oats
55g
1/2 tbsp chia seeds
6g
1.50 cups coconut milk
340g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g
2 carrots
120g
1 tsp cinnamon
2.60g
2.25 tsp ginger
4.05g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1/2 banana
60g
2 tbsp walnuts
16g
2 tbsp dried coconut meat
11g

Instructions:

1. Preparation of Carrots:
- Wash, peel, and finely grate the carrots. Set aside.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats and chia seeds.
3. Incorporate Wet Ingredients:
- Add the coconut milk and vanilla extract to the bowl with the oats and chia seeds. Stir well to combine.
4. Season and Flavor:
- Stir in the grated carrots, cinnamon, ginger, and a dash of salt. Ensure all the ingredients are evenly mixed.
5. Sweeten Naturally:
- Mash the banana using a fork until smooth. Add it to the porridge mixture and stir thoroughly.
6. Add Crunch:
- Stir in the roughly chopped walnuts and dried coconut meat.
7. Mix Well:
- Give the mixture one final stir to make sure all the ingredients are well incorporated.
8. Overnight Refrigeration:
- Transfer the mixture to a container with a lid. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 6-8 hours. This allows the oats and chia seeds to absorb the liquid and flavors.
9. Serving:
- In the morning, give the porridge a good stir. If it is too thick, you can add a little more coconut milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Serve chilled. You can top it with additional chopped walnuts, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or some fresh fruit if desired.
10. Enjoy:
- Your Carrot Cake Overnight Porridge is ready to enjoy! It makes for a nutritious and satisfying breakfast or snack.

Tips:

- Grate the carrots finely to ensure they mix well with the other ingredients and soften sufficiently overnight.

- Use a ripe banana for added natural sweetness, or adjust the amount of banana to suit your taste preference.

- You can substitute coconut milk with any other type of milk or milk alternative if you prefer a different flavor or need a lower-fat option.

- Add a bit of freshly grated nutmeg for an extra layer of flavor that complements the cinnamon and ginger.

- Store the mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep it fresh.

- If you find the porridge too thick after soaking, simply stir in a little more milk to reach your desired consistency.

- Top with additional walnuts, coconut flakes, or even a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra flavor and texture.

Carrot cake overnight porridge is an effortless and delicious breakfast that combines the flavor of a classic dessert with the health benefits of oats, chia seeds, and fresh carrots. By preparing it the night before, you can enjoy a stress-free morning meal that's both nourishing and scrumptious. Customize this recipe to your taste and enjoy a wholesome start to your day!
