Ingredients You’ll Need:

Base Ingredients:

  • 1 cup rolled oats (use gluten-free oats if needed)
  • 1 medium apple , grated or finely diced (leave the skin on for extra fiber)
  • 1 medium carrot , grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for warmth and sweetness)
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional, for a cozy spice blend)
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts or seeds (walnuts, almonds, pecans, or sunflower seeds for crunch)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or water (adjust as needed for desired consistency)

Optional Toppings:

  • Fresh apple slices
  • A dollop of unsweetened yogurt (Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt work well)
  • A sprinkle of cinnamon or crushed nuts

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Step 1: Prep the Ingredients

  1. Grate the apple and carrot using a box grater or food processor. If you prefer a chunkier texture, dice the apple into small pieces instead of grating.
  2. Measure out the rolled oats, spices, and any optional mix-ins like nuts or seeds.

Step 2: Combine and Cook

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, grated apple, grated carrot, cinnamon, and nutmeg (if using). Stir to evenly distribute the ingredients.
  2. Add a splash of unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or water to help soften the oats and bind the mixture. Stir gently to combine.

Stovetop Method:

  1. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the oat-apple-carrot mixture and cook for 5–7 minutes , stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and the mixture thickens. Add more liquid (milk or water) as needed to prevent sticking.

Baking Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) .
  2. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish or ramekins. Bake for 20–25 minutes , or until the top is golden and the mixture is set.
