If I understood you correctly:

Time in minutes

Carbon\Carbon::parse($notification->created_at)->diffInMinutes(Carbon\Carbon::now());

Else you should really just read the Carbon docs, they're incredibly extensive and contain an example for pretty much any use case: http://carbon.nesbot.com/docs/#api-difference

Use diffInMinutes() method:

{{ $notification->created_at->diffInMinutes(Carbon::now()) }}

Note, that you don't need to parse created_at as it's already an instance of Carbon.
