Instructions

Add the rolled oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt to a mixing bowl and whisk together.
Then, add in the remaining ingredients including the oat milk, maple syrup, vegan cream cheese (or yogurt), vanilla, and grated carrots. Mix into a thick batter, making sure to get out any large clumps of cream cheese.
Pour the overnight oat batter into two glass jars, then seal and store in the fridge for 4 hours or overnight.
The next morning, remove from the fridge, add any toppings you desire such as yogurt or crushed pecans, and enjoy cold!

Notes:

Please see the blog post for substitution notes & recipe tips.
Overnight oats are best enjoyed the day after they are made. However, they will keep in the fridge for about 3 days and are best enjoyed within this time range.

I don't recommend freezing overnight oats.

I used these tulip jelly jars for this recipe.
