Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 1/2 cup grated carrot
- 1/2 cup rolled (old-fashioned) oats (GF oats)
- 1/3 cup crushed pineapple
- 2 tablespoons golden raisins
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon Toasted coconut flakes

Instructions
- Place the water and carrots in a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to soften the carrots.
- Stir in the oats, pineapple, raisins, cinnamon, and nutmeg and bring to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until it begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.
- Once most of the liquid is absorbed, stir in the milk and simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until slightly thickened and creamy.
