So quick and easy, with so many options and flavors, you will wonder why you didn’t do this before!

Ingredients

• 35 grams Old Fashioned Oats or Oat Flour

• 6 grams Cinnamon Protein Powder (I use PE Science Vegan Select)

• 1/2 tsp Baking Powder

• Cinnamon Powder, to taste

• Pinch of Himylayan Pink Salt

• 50 grams Pumpkin Puree

• 40-60 grams Unsweetened Almond Milk

• 25 grams Apple, Minced

Instructions

• Pre-heat oven/toaster oven to 350 degrees.

• In a bowl, combine oats, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon and salt.  

• Add pumpkin puree and almond milk.  The mixture will be very wet.  

• Fold in apple.

• Pour into ramekin and bake for 20 minutes.

Notes

• You can make this ahead of time and refrigerate.  The mixture will firm up a bit.  You will then let it sit out prior to baking, until about room temperature.  

• If you prefer a crunchier top, you can toast immediately after baking for a couple of minutes.

• If you would like to prep multiple servings for a week, you can use a muffin tin for baking.

• For added protein, consider serving with egg whites.

• You can try different variations of this recipe:

  • Blueberries, instead of apple

  • Add 5 grams of unsweetened cocoa powder for a chocolatey treat and top with a powdered peanut butter, like PB2 or PB Fit.

  • For a little coffee kick, add ½ tsp instant coffee/espresso powder.
