Carrot Cake Oatmeal Bake Tips:
Do I have to use quick oats?
For this particular recipe, you can also use rolled oats. I prefer quick oats because they are smaller in size and bake quickly and evenly. However, if you have rolled oats on-hand, then that is just fine.
Can I Substitute any of the ingredients?
Absolutely! If you prefer a stronger taste in your oatmeal bake, then replace the nutmeg with ground ginger.
If you’d like to control the sweetness of your Carrot Cake Oatmeal Bake, then omit the honey completely, and drizzle a little on top when serving. You can even omit the honey completely if you’d like to control the sugar levels.
how do i store my oatmeal bake?
To store your carrot cake oatmeal bake, cut them into squares and place in an airtight food container.
can i freeze my carrot cake oatmeal bake?
Yes, this Carrot Cake Oatmeal Bake can be frozen for up to three months. Just wrap it in plastic, then wrap it in an additional layer of aluminium foil. Then, place it in a freezer bag.
To reheat it from the freezer, let it thaw until room temperature. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes.
