Molten Chocolate Chip Protein Baked Oats
Basically molten chocolate cake meets chocolate chip cookies meets cozy breakfast oats 🤯🤤🫠I’ve been on such a baked oats kick lately and love adding a protein source for better blood sugar balance and to keep me full for longer. I like to eat this as a snacking cake rather than a breakfast because I’m more of a savory breakfast gal but if baked oats are your breakfast jam then who am I to stop you!!
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats I look for gluten-free
- ¾ cup almond milk
- ½ tsp vanilla
- 2 tbsp cashew butter
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1.5 tbsp coconut sugar optional
- 2 squares of chocolate I like to freeze mine for about 30 minutes first for best results
- chocolate chips for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350
- Grease a 12oz ramekin with avocado or coconut oil
- Add all of your ingredients except your chocolate chips to a blender and blend until smooth
- Pour your batter unto your prepared ramekin and press your chocolate squares into the center, covering with the batter
- Top with chocolate chips
- Bake for 25 minutes
- Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before diving into the molten chocolate goodness
- ENJOY!
Notes
- If you prefer a more intense chocolate flavor, feel free to add an extra square of chocolate or a few more chocolate chips on top.
- For a vegan version, simply replace the protein powder with a plant-based option.
