This Carrot Oatmeal with pecans, maple syrup, and spices is irresistibly hearty, rich, buttery, and delicious – more than just a regular bowl of oatmeal!

Hello everyone – I hope new week has been treating you well so far. I know, it’s Monday.
Carrot Oatmeal
That’s why I brought something utterly good. This Carrot Oatmeal is not your everyday recipe, but it will be perfect for a lazy weekend breakfast or brunch. It is not the healthiest oatmeal recipe, either. It feels more like a dessert porridge bowl indeed. But who can refuse dessert for breakfast, right? Plus it is still packed with healthy fiber and protein, so this oatmeal should keep you full for a long time.
This incredibly rich and mouthwatering carrot topping somewhat is similar to carrot halwa. You will need to sauté shredded carrots with butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, and cardamom until nice and glossy. Plus the addition of pecans for added crunch. Can you see how good is this? Yeah, you can totally enjoy this carrot topping just like dessert, without any oatmeal!

Dear friend, printing to make; love all the ingredients!
Thanks Davorka!
I love oatmeal! But this, wow, is something I never thought of! It sounds absolutely exquisite.
Thank you Jeff!
I do love oatmeal in the winter, and this version sounds fantastic, Ben. I see what you mean about dessert for breakfast with the maple and the sweetness from the carrot…but it still sounds delicious! As you know, I love sneaking cardamom into my recipes when I can so I know I would enjoy this oatmeal.
Thanks David!
This is like a healthier gluten free carrot cake in a bowl :-)
Hehe, agreed!
This might get me to eat a bowl of oatmeal!! What a yummy twist.
Thanks Liz!
I love all the flavors in this wonderful carrot oatmeal. Cardamom is a favorite of mine. I’m enjoying your focus on carrot recipes.
Thanks Judee!
