Carrot Cake Porridge

Carrot Cake Porridge

Carrot cake is one of my favourite soul foods so I had to try making a carrot cake porridge. A great alternative to your tradiitonal oats and a way to bump up your veg intake if that is something that you are mindfulof. You could also try baking it in the oven after cooking to crisp up the top. 

Carrot Cake Porridge

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

  • 3/4 - 1 cup milk of choice

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger

  • Pinch of salt

  • 1/2 small carrot, finely grated

  • 1 tbs currants or sultanas

  • Greek yoghurt for topping

  • Almond butter for topping

Method

  1. Add oats, 3/4 cup of milk, spices, salt and carrot into a small pan
