This is on my list for this weekend’s slow cozy mornings! 🍁🍂
A cozy twist on your morning oats, these Cinnamon Roll Baked Protein Oats blend creamy vanilla protein powder with warm cinnamon and a hint of buttery flavor for a comforting, protein-packed breakfast. Ground flax or chia seeds add extra fiber, while a drizzle of a creamy vanilla yogurt glaze mimics that classic cinnamon roll icing. It’s like having dessert for breakfast, but with all the goodness your body needs to start the day strong!
INGREDIENTS
1/4 c oats
2 T chia seeds, ground flax, or psyllium husk (1 T for husk powder)
1 serving vanilla protein powder
1 tsp baking powder
1/2-1 tsp cinnamon
sprinkle pink salt
1 c milk
1/4 tsp butter extract (optional)
-
Glaze
1 heaping Tbsp vanilla Greek yogurt or add 1 T vanilla protein powder to plain yogurt
1 Tbsp creamer or milk of choice
-
dash of cinnamon
STEPS
Combine dry ingredients and whisk in milk. Place in a sprayed bowl or ramekin and bake 350° 30 min or so depending on depth of dish. Mine took 30 in a glass cereal bowl.
-
Glaze: Stir in small bowl and spoon over oats after removing from oven. I topped mine with sprinkles. I like more fat than this to keep me satiated so usually add 1 T almond or melted butter too but totally up to you and your hunger.
