Carrot ‘Cake’ Overnight Oats

DF | NF | RSF | EF – can be GF
AGE APPROPRIATE:
8 months +
SERVES: 3 child servings

Yummy and most of all making your morning that much easier. This makes enough for 3 small child servings, so prep the night before and know breaky is done for a few days!
Overnight oats are so great because they are soaked and soured overnight in the yoghurt/milk – so the phytic acid is reduced making them much easier to digest and also the nutrients are more bioavailable.

Carrot ‘Cake’ overnight oats

DF | NF | RSF | EF – can be GF

  • Lid or Cover
  • Refrigerator
  • Small Bowl
  • 1/2 carrot grated (for babies under 1 I would use a fine grater as the shreds can cause unnecessary gagging)
  • 1/2 cup   rolled oats (can be swapped for quinoa flakes to make GF)
  • 1 TBSP  hemp seeds
  • 1 cup  milk of choice (I used almond)
  • 1/4 tsp  cinnamon
  • 1/2  cup  yoghurt of choice (I used Greek but can use coconut for DF)
  • 1 TBSP  chia seeds

Optional: 

  • 2 tsp  maple syrup (I’d save this for over 12 months)
  1. Add all ingredients except the chia seeds to a small bowl and stir

  2.  Add the chia seeds and stir through

  3.  Pop the lid on and leave overnight or atleast 4 hours in the fridge

  4.  Serve and enjoy!
