Ingredients

• ¼ cup rolled old fashioned oats
• ⅓ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• ⅓ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
• 3 tbsp liquid egg whites
• 15 g vanilla protein powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• ¼ tsp baking powder
• ½ cup frozen blueberries
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp Swerve (granular sweetener)
• Mixture of granular and brown Swerve for topping

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a 10 oz. ramekin with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Step 2: Place the oats, Greek yogurt, almond milk, liquid egg whites, protein powder, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder into a small blender. Blend until smooth and set the oat batter aside.
3. Step 3: Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the frozen blueberries, vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of Swerve. Slightly mash some of the blueberries with a spoon. Cook until the mixture bubbles and thickens slightly, then remove from heat.
4. Step 4: Pour the oat batter into the prepared ramekin. Spoon the warm blueberry filling into the center of the batter.
5. Step 5: Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted near the edge comes out clean. For a gooier texture, aim for closer to 25 minutes.
6. Step 6: Remove from the oven and sprinkle a mixture of granular and brown Swerve on top to mimic a sugar donut topping. Serve warm and enjoy!

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Baked Oats

• ¼ cup rolled old fashioned oats
• ⅓ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
• ⅓ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
• 3 tbsp liquid egg whites
• 15 g vanilla protein powder
• ¼ tsp salt
• ½ tsp cinnamon
• ¼ tsp baking powder

Blueberry Filling

• ½ cup frozen blueberries
• ½ tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp Swerve (granular and brown mixture)
• 1 tsp lemon juice (estimated based on standard blueberry jam recipes)

Topping

• Mixture of granular and brown Swerve (for sugar donut topping)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 10 oz. ramekin with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Oat Batter: Add all baked oats ingredients (rolled oats, Greek yogurt, almond milk, liquid egg whites, vanilla protein powder, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder) into a small blender. Blend until smooth and well combined. Set this oat mixture aside.
3. Make the Blueberry Filling: Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the frozen blueberries, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and Swerve. Slightly mash some of the blueberries with a spoon to release juices. Cook until the mixture starts bubbling, then remove from heat to prevent overcooking.
4. Assemble the Baked Oats: Pour the oat batter into the prepared ramekin. Spoon the warm blueberry filling into the center of the batter, creating a pocket of blueberry jam within the oats.
5. Bake: Place the ramekin in the preheated oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the oats should come out clean when done. For a slightly gooey texture, bake closer to 25 minutes.
6. Add Topping and Serve: Once baked, sprinkle a mixture of granular and brown Swerve on top to mimic a sugar donut topping. Serve warm and enjoy your protein-rich blueberry jam baked oats.

Notes

• For best results, use a blender or Nutribullet for smooth batter consistency.
• You can adjust the sweetness level by altering the amount of Swerve according to taste.
• Frozen blueberries work well, but fresh can be used if preferred.
• If you don’t have liquid egg whites, you can use whole eggs but may need to adjust baking times slightly.
• Ramekin size is important to maintain proper thickness and baking time—use a 10 oz. size for ideal results.
