Description

Creamy, wholesome steel-cut oats cooked with carrots, coconut milk and spices. Serve with yogurt for a breakfast that sticks with you until lunch time. (This recipe is gluten free and easily vegan.)

Ingredient:

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup light coconut milk (or milk of choice or another cup of water)
  • 1 cup steel-cut oats
  • 1 cup grated carrots (about 2 large carrots)
  • ⅔ cup seedless raisins (I used golden raisins)
  • ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ cup unsweetened coconut flakes (I used a mix of unsweetened shredded coconut and large flakes since that’s what I had)
  • 1 ½ tablespoon grated orange zest (this took 1 ½ oranges for me)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 or more tablespoons maple syrup (or honey or agave nectar or brown sugar)
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional but recommended)
