Ingredients

1 medium carrot

½ cup rolled oats

kosher salt, (1 pinch)

1⁄4 tsp pure vanilla extract

⅛ tsp ground cinnamon

1 tbsp raisins, optional

1 tbsp brown sugar, plus more to taste

1 tbsp unsalted butter, plus more to taste

2 tbsp walnuts, toasted and coarsely chopped

Preparation

Peel the carrot and grate it into a small saucepan. Add 1 cup of water and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the oats, vanilla, cinnamon, and raisins. Adjust the heat to maintain a steady simmer and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes until the oats and carrot are tender.

Take the pan off the heat. Stir in the brown sugar. Transfer to a bowl. Dot the top with bits of the butter. Sprinkle with more brown sugar and top with the walnuts.

Serve hot. Enjoy!
