Carrot cake is one of my favorite desserts and as you know oatmeal is a breakfast ritual so, when my basket arrived with a bunch of beautiful nantes carrots I knew I had to combine the my two loves and the carrot cake lovechild was born. The combination of carrot and coconut mixed with pie spices is the perfect way to start off a cold morning. If you like carrot cake you will love no seriously go nuts for this bowl of oats. This is a good base which I think can be jazzed or changed up with banana, mangos, walnuts or even a little oatmeal "icing" made out of greek yogurt and maple syrup. I hope I get more nantes this week because I am going to have fun playing around with this combination.

I'll take any excuse to eat carrot cake for breakfast! Especially if it's totally guilt free, as this is. Looks delicious!
