Recipe NotesI prefer these carrot cake overnight oats cold but on super chilly mornings you can also serve them warm. Just remove the container lid and pop into the microwave for 2-3 minutes before topping with the walnuts and yoghurt.

These overnight oats are best served the next day but keep well in the fridge for up to 3 days. Why not double/triple this recipe to keep you going for multiple mornings?!
Gluten-Free: Make sure that your oats are certified gluten-free.  

Vegan: Use maple syrup rather than honey and plant-based milk and yoghurt.
