Overnight oats are a wonderful, quick, and easy way to get a great start to your day. They require little preparation, no cooking, and can be made ahead of time to last through the week. This tasty mixture of oats and carrots supplies the satisfying flavor of carrot cake in a healthy and nutritious breakfast.
Oats are a part of the whole grain family. They are a great source of fiber and are also high in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. They are the only food source of avenanthramides, a group of antioxidants that are believed to protect against heart disease. Oats are a good source of manganese, phosphorus, copper, and vitamin B1. They also carry a significant amount of quality protein at 11-17% of dry weight, which is higher than most other grains.
The carrots in this recipe are also a good source of fiber. Carrots contain the soluble fiber, pectin, which helps to lower blood sugar levels by slowing down the digestion rate of sugar and starch. They are rich in many essential vitamins and minerals including vitamin A which is important for eye health and immune function. Carrots are also a good source of biotin, vitamin K1, and potassium, and have been linked to lower cholesterol levels.
