Ingredients
- 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats 160g
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder 25g
- 1/2 cup chocolate protein powder PEScience Chocolate Truffle 60g
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 1/2 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk 360ml
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce 135g
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil 48g
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup lite pancake syrup
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips 40g
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the oats, cocoa powder, protein powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to combine.
- In another medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, maple syrup, applesauce, melted coconut oil, egg, syrup, vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until well combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
- Allow the baked oatmeal to cool for a few minutes before cutting into 6 equal servings and serving. You can enjoy it warm, at room temperature, or even cold and on the go.
Notes
- Nutritional information is an estimate and will vary with substitutions.
- If you’re using a really great nonstick pan you can skip the parchment paper but it makes cleanup SO much easier if your pan isn't the best.
- To omit the protein powder lower the milk by 1/4 cup. I would suggest adding in 1-2 EXTRA Tbsp. of syrup or honey to your desired sweetness as the protein powder does add quite a bit of sweetness to these oats.
- This recipe has only been tested with PEScience Chocolate Truffle. You can substitute with your favorite protein or opt for a whey-casein blend.
