Nutritional benefits
These protein baked oats combine oats (beta-glucans that are good for cholesterol, and complex carbohydrate) with a scoop of protein powder (24 g) for satiety and muscle. The apple adds fibre and natural sweetness with no added sugar. A complete, filling and heart-friendly breakfast.
Variations and substitutions
- With berries, banana or pears.
- Chocolatey: chocolate protein powder plus cocoa.
- Without protein powder: skyr plus more oats.
- With peanut butter for extra indulgence.
Storage and making ahead
Keeps for 3 days and can be reheated for 30 seconds in the microwave: make them in ramekins for the week.
💡 Good to know
Take them out while the centre is still slightly gooey for a soft texture, like a warm apple sponge.
