Ingredients

1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups almond milk or your favorite milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 banana mashed
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of nutmeg
pinch of salt
1/2 cup grated carrot
2 tablespoons chopped walnuts optional
2 tablespoons raisins optional
Optional: to make these sweeter you can mix in your sweetener of choice - stevia, honey, maple syrup, etc.

Instructions

Add oats, milk, vanilla, mashed banana, chia seeds and spices to a medium mixing bowl and stir.
Mix in grated carrots, chopped walnuts, and raisins.
Divide overnight oats mixture between 2 mason jars. Seal jars and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Serve with an extra splash of milk if desired and sprinkle with additional walnuts and raisins before serving. Taste and sweeten as desired.

Notes

Keep overnight oats stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container or in mason jars for up to 4 to 5 days. When you’re ready to enjoy, give the mixture a good stir and add an extra splash of milk, if you’d like.
