Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring water, milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt to a boil. (Keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn't boil over)
- Add the oats, carrots, and raisins, reduce the heat to medium low, and let simmer for 18 to 21 minutes stirring frequently so the milk doesn't burn.
- While the oatmeal is cooking, in a small bowl whisk the cream cheese until fluffy and smooth. Gradually add the yogurt, stirring after each addition. Stir in the cinnamon.
- Remove the oats from the heat and stir in walnuts and butter. Top with the cream cheese and additional walnuts if desired.
Notes
- Leftover oatmeal can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat on the stovetop with a little bit of milk, stirring until heated through.
