Creamy, flavourful, carrot cake ‘oats’!
You guys have been waiting for this recipe & I am SO excited to finally share it on here! I have been LOVING these keto carrot cake oats this week & I am hopeful that you will too!

I used Vital Proteins collagen in this recipe, but they are totally optional & will work without adding collagen as well! I love the little protein boost from the collagen & it’s is also amazing for hair, skin, & nails as well! Feel free to add protein powder if you would like as well, but keep in mind this will slightly change the
I used Lakanto’s sugar-free maple syrup in this recipe, but you can use real maple syrup, Lakanto’s golden sweetener, or whatever sweetener you prefer. I use Lakanto products because they don’t upset my stomach, or raise my blood sugar levels, & they keep my recipes sugar-free!
I used my homemade hazelnut milk in this recipe as well, which I highly recommend! The recipe is on my Instagram page & in my highlights! It’s actually super easy to make & so worth it! Plus you save $$.

I topped these oats with my sugar-free cream cheese icing, but you can top them with more almond butter, syrup, or whatever you would like! I also have a vegan sugar-free cream cheese icing that is also delicious which I will link here for you!

- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- Pinch Pink or Celtic Sea Salt
- 2 tbsp Ground flaxseeds Aka flax-meal
- 2-4 tbsp Carrot, grated Plus a little extra to garnish on top
- 1/4 tsp Vanilla or almond extract
- 1-2 tbsp Almond butter or nut butter of choice
- 1-3 tbsp Maple syrup, brown sugar or sweetener or choice Optional* I used a sugar-free maple syrup, linked above

Ingredients

- In a medium saucepan over low/medium heat add the cauliflower, pink salt & 1/2 cup of water. Cover & let the cauliflower steam/soften for a few minutes. Check it regularly to see when the desired texture is achieved. I steamed it until the cauliflower was soft but still somewhat dense, as this is the texture I prefer. You may need to add a bit more water or milk if you like a softer texture.
- Add the rest of the ingredients you are using, along with the other half of the water/nut milk & reduce to a simmer. Allow the 'oats' to simmer for several minutes, until the water is absorbed & the desired texture is achieved.
- If your oats aren't thickening as much as you prefer, add another tbsp of flax-meal & let it absorb. If you want to thin it out add a few more tbsp of water or nut milk until your desired consistency is reached.
- When the texture & consistency is achieved that you prefer, remove the oats from the heat & top with your toppings of choice! I added a bit more grated carrot, pecans, sugar-free syrup & my homemade sugar-free cream cheese icing (linked above as well is a vegan icing option)!
Oats are not Keto – Keto meals shouldn’t ideally exceed 10 net carbs a meal and should have almost no Grain in it.

Hi!
You must not have actually looked at the recipe? There are no oats in this recipe. I called it ‘N’Oatmeal’ for this reason. Please read the full recipe before assuming this is false advertising.
