CARROT CAKE OATMEAL RECIPE:
I would call this about 4-6 servings. Feel free to divide or multiply the recipe as needed. = )

INGREDIENTS:
4 1/2 Cups Water
2 Cups Oatmeal
1/2 Cup Raisens
1 Cup Shredded Carrot
1 Cup chopped Apple
1/4 Cup pumpkin seeds
1/4 Cup sunflower seeds
2 Tablespoons Coconut oil
1 Tablespoon Vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon pink salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground clove
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

INSTRUCTIONS
Place ingredients in pot. Stir. Bring to boil. Set to low with lid on for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit 5 minutes. Serve with sliced banana and/or drizzled with raw honey or pure maple syrup.

OPTIONAL
Sometimes we add 1/2 cup sucanat/rapadura (unrefined sugar) or coconut sugar with the other ingredients instead of using honey or syrup.

I like my oatmeal a bit “al dente”, if you like yours mushy add a little extra water (1/4 cup at a time) and cook until desired consistency is reached (perhaps 5 minutes longer). 🙂

Walnuts or pecans can be used instead of the seeds if you want this to be more traditional to Carrot Cake. Use what you have on hand. I don’t suggest almonds or anything else with a skin (the skins come off while cooking and are an unpleasant texture in my opinion), unless you’re using sliced or slivered almonds where the skins have been removed.
If you’re reading this type “Carrots are amazzzzing!” in the comments! ?
