Baked Oatmeal Carrot Cake Version Food

CARROT CAKE BAKED OATMEAL

Steps:

• For the cream cheese topping: Combine the cream cheese, granulated sugar and vanilla in a small bowl. Mix well until smooth. Set aside.
• For the carrot cake baked oatmeal: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the oats and pecans in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Cook and toss until the oats and pecans are lightly toasted and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly while the oven preheats.
• To the skillet with the oats and pecans, add the carrots, raisins, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, nutmeg and 1/2 cup brown sugar and toss to combine. In a large spouted measuring cup, combine the milk, eggs, melted butter and vanilla. Whisk to combine. Pour over the oat mixture. Stir and toss to combine well, making sure all of the oats are evenly distributed in the egg mixture.
• Sprinkle the top with the remaining 2 tablespoons brown sugar. Dollop dots of the cream cheese topping over the surface of the oatmeal. Bake until the oatmeal is set and slightly puffed and the top is golden and caramelized, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before cutting and serving.

CARROT CAKE BAKED OATMEAL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and grease an 8 x 8-inch baking dish with oil, or line with parchment paper.
• Grate carrots using the large side of a box grater or the grating attachment on a food processor.
• Prepare flax eggs in a large mixing bowl by mixing flaxseed meal and water and let rest for 5 minutes. Then add maple syrup, oil, salt, and cinnamon and whisk to combine.
• Add dairy-free milk and whisk once more. Then add grated carrots, oats, nuts, and raisins, and stir to combine.
• Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with additional walnuts and raisins (~2 Tbsp each). Sprinkle with coconut sugar for a "swirl" effect (optional).
• Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown, the edges are slightly caramelized, and it has some springiness in the center. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes in the pan.
• Serve warm with desired toppings, such as warmed coconut milk or almond milk and a drizzle of maple syrup or nut butter.
• Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator 3-4 days (or in the freezer for up to 1 month), though best when fresh. Reheat in a 350-degree F (176 C) oven or in the microwave until hot, adding more dairy-free milk as needed to moisten.

CARROT CAKE BAKED OATMEAL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F and line a 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
• Add all ingredients for the baked oatmeal in a large bowl and stir until combined.
• Pour into prepared baking dish and bake for 50-60 minutes. Check it around 45 minutes and if the top is getting too brown, cover with foil for the remaining time. The baked oatmeal will still be a little soft to the touch but should be cooked through and not jiggly in the middle.
• While the oatmeal is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the whipped cream cheese, maple syrup, almond milk and vanilla in a small bowl.
• Remove baked oatmeal from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes to cool before serving. Drizzle some of the glaze over each portion when serving.
• Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
• To reheat the whole baked oatmeal, cover with foil and reheat in a 350°F oven for about 20 minutes. For individual portions, set oven (or toaster oven) to 350°F and bake for 5-10 minutes or reheat in the microwave for 1 minute.

CARROT CAKE OATMEAL

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a heavy, large saucepan, and stir in the oats. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook oats until they begin to thicken, about 10 minutes; mix in the apple, carrot, raisins, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt. Let the oats simmer until tender, about 20 more minutes.
• While the oats are simmering, melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and stir in the pecans. Toast the nuts until fragrant and lightly browned, 2 to 5 minutes, then sprinkle with brown sugar and stir until sugar has melted and coated the pecans.
• Serve in bowls, each topped with about 2 tablespoons of the pecan mixture and a dollop of yogurt.

CARROT CAKE OATMEAL WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• In a medium size pan, heat the grated carrot, oats, milk, water, and salt over medium heat. Once the mixture begins to simmer, approximately 5-6 minutes, stir in the sliced banana. Continue to stir, almost whipping, until the banana breaks down and the mixture thickens and becomes creamy, about another 5-6 minutes. The fresh carrot gives off quite a bit of water, so this recipe takes a little longer to thicken up. As I have mentioned in many of my oatmeal recipes, I really like utilizing the banana because it adds so much volume to the oats.
• In a separate small-size bowl, add the greek yogurt, 1/8 tsp of stevia, and 1/8 tsp vanilla and whip together using a hand mixer on medium-low speed. Set aside.
• Add 1 tsp of vanilla extract, wheat germ, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and stevia, to the oatmeal and stir until incorporated. Pour into a serving bowl and top with the cream cheese mixture and the walnuts.
