Put in your AppServiceProvider:

Carbon::setToStringFormat('your format');

It could be because of localization (where you hail from). In order to format another way you have several options.

use format() which the most flexible
use setToStringFormat() and then after if you desire resetToStringFormat() for back to localized format
use something like Carbon::now('America/Vancouver')->local to produce the correct local format
