Carrot cake oats

Greg Bowker

Ingredients

½ cup	Oats
1 medium	Carrot, grated (Main)
1 pinch	Cinnamon, large
1 Tbsp	Ground linseed, heaped
1 pinch	Nutmeg, large
1 tsp	Vanilla extract
¼ cup	Raisins, or sultanas
½	Bananas, mashed
¼ cup	Walnuts, or use almonds; plus extra to garnish
½ cup	Milk, or use almond milk or cream
½ cup	Water

Directions

1. Place all ingredients into a saucepan, and stir together, then increase the heat to medium. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer gently - this will only take a few minutes. Simmer gently until you're ready to serve, and serve with a few extra raisins and walnut or almond pieces, and a dollop of walnuts if you wish.

NOTE:if you want to add sweetness, you can add a little brown sugar or honey either while cooking or as a garnish. As always, adjust things to your own taste.
