Baked protein oats
This is the ultimate filling breakfast that almost feels like a dessert. It's high in protein, gluten free, dairy free, and free of added sugar. All you'll really need are oats, eggs, protein powder and milk - the rest is customisable depending on what you like

Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Baking tin or roasting tin
Ingredients
For the base recipe
- 90 g (1 cup) gluten free oats
- 3 scoops protein powder - I use unflavoured vegan powder, but you could use any other type for this recipe
- 3 medium eggs
- 50 ml dairy free milk e.g. coconut or soya
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
Optional flavourings
- 3 tsp cinnamon
- 2 tsp mixed spice
- 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 150 g blueberries
- 1 large apple, chopped into small chunks (I love pink lady apples)
- 100 g almond butter
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup - if you like it a bit sweeter
- 3 tbsp dairy free yoghurt/cream equivalent to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175°C or 350°F
- Grease and line a square 6x6 inch roasting tin. If using a shallower baking tin, use a larger size to allow the mixture room to rise
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until slightly fluffy
- Tip in the oats, protein powder, baking powder and (optional) cinnamon, mixed spice and vanilla essence
- Using a metal spoon, stir the mixture together until the lumps of protein powder have disappeared. Don't worry if some small clumps still remain
- Tip in the blueberries and chopped apple and mix gently
- Pour the whole mixture into the tin and bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown
- Cut into slices and eat warm. If desired, serve together with yoghurt or cream
