"Eat cake for breakfast." - Kate Spade
Our Carrot Cake Almond & Walnut Butter is packed with the flavor of a classic carrot cake. The only thing missing is the actual carrot and the sweet cream cheese frosting. That's where this recipe for overnight oats comes in.
Greek yogurt provides richness and tang reminiscent of cream cheese and fresh carrot garnish rounds out the whole experience. The resulting oatmeal is like having carrot cake for breakfast!
