Description
Discover the ultimate protein baked oatmeal recipe! Packed with 15–20g of protein per serving, it’s the perfect healthy, high-protein breakfast for busy mornings or meal prep.
Ingredients
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 scoop (about 30g) vanilla protein powder (or flavor of choice)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- A pinch of salt
- 2 large eggs (or 2 flax eggs for a vegan option)
- 1 cup milk (or almond milk for dairy-free)
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup (adjust sweetness to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds)
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen berries
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds
- 1/4 cup peanut butter for a creamy texture
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until fully combined. Add any optional add-ins, like berries or nuts.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the baked oatmeal cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, or store for later.
