Healthy Carrot Cake Porridge

Healthy Carrot Cake Oat Porridge | nourisheveryday.com | This easy, delicious porridge recipe combines gluten free oats, grated carrot and fragrant spices to make a healthy breakfast that tastes like dessert!

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup gluten free rolled oats (45 grams)
  • 1 medium carrot, grated (1/2-3/4 cup)
  • 2 tsp ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1-2 tsp maple syrup or another preferred sweetener
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/2 cup water

Protein Options

  • 1 egg whisked
  • 2 tbsp protein powder of choice

Instructions

  1. Grate the carrot and pop in to a small saucepan together with the rolled oats, flaxseed, sweetener and spices. Pour in the almond milk, water and vanilla extract. Stir everything together.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce the heat to a low simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 7-10 minutes, or until the porridges reaches your preferred consistency. Add a little extra water and/or almond milk to thin the porridge out as it's cooking, if needed.
  3. If you'd like to add some additional protein, while the porridge is cooking, simply add in a whisked egg or a few tablespoons of your preferred protein powder. If you're adding the egg, make sure to stir briskly so the egg becomes completely incorporated in to the porridge.
  4. Serve the porridge piping hot with a sprinkle of extra cinnamon and toppings of your choice (pictured is a topping of coconut yoghurt, blueberries and pumpkin seeds).
