Gingerbread Baked Protein Oats

A warm and comforting dish that combines the festive flavors of gingerbread with the nourishing goodness of oats. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of oats (GF if preferred) with 1/2 cup of chia, psyllium husk flakes, or ground flax seeds (use 1/4 cup for husk powder). Add 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon each of cinnamon, ginger, and allspice or pumpkin pie spice. Season with a dash of salt.

In a separate bowl, mix together 1 cup of vanilla or salted caramel protein, 1 cup of nonfat Greek yogurt, 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of molasses. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, gradually incorporating 1 1/2 cups of almond or coconut milk (unsweetened) until well blended.

Pour the mixture into a baking dish and bake until the oats are set and the top is golden brown. Optionally, drizzle with icing for an extra touch of sweetness. Enjoy our Gingerbread Baked Protein Oats as a wholesome and flavorful breakfast or snack, perfect for bringing the festive spirit to your table!

INGREDIENTS

  • 🎁1 tsp cinnamon

  • 🎄1 tsp ginger

  • 🎄dash salt

  • 🎁1 c The Peachie Spoon Vanilla Protein Powder

• Wet

  • 🎄1 c nonfat Greek yogurt

  • 🎁2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 🎄2 T molasses (optional holiday cheer, it does make a diff)

  • 🎁1 1/2 c almond or coconut milk (unsweetened)

    STEPS

1. Combine dry ingredients and stir. Add milk, vanilla, and yogurt. Stir and place is a greased 9 x 13 and bake at 350° for 30-40 min until slightly browned on top.

2. Optional icing: Mix well in a small bowl and add to the top after completely cooled.

3. Cut into 6 servings and store in fridge. Also Freezes well and can thaw in fridge overnight (one slice in baggie) or microwave from frozen 30 sec. I usually microwave mine and top with more milk & some yogurt or cottage cheese for extra protein but if doing the icing there’s no need for extra. Nut butter and coconut are some yummy additions too for a little more fat if super hungry but it’s a perfect complete meal by itself to shut off those hunger hormones for 4-5 hours so you can conquer your day. You can eat it like a bar on the go too.
