Ingredients
Scale
Fruits and Berries:
- 1 ½ cups mixed berries
Dry Ingredients:
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Warm your oven to 350°F and prepare an 8-inch baking dish with a light spray of cooking oil to prevent sticking.
- Gather a medium mixing bowl and blend 2 cups rolled oats, ½ teaspoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt until thoroughly combined.
- Grab another bowl and vigorously whisk 2 large eggs, ¼ cup maple syrup, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 cup almond milk, and ½ cup Greek yogurt until the mixture appears completely smooth.
- Incorporate 1 scoop vanilla protein powder into the wet ingredients, stirring carefully to eliminate any potential lumps.
- Create the base by gently pouring wet ingredients into dry ingredients, using a spatula to blend without overmixing.
- Delicately fold 1 ½ cups mixed berries into the batter, ensuring even distribution throughout the mixture.
- Transfer the entire mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with your spatula.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, watching for a golden-brown surface and a firm center.
- Remove from the oven and allow the bake to rest for 10 minutes, which helps it set and makes cutting easier.
- Slice into portions and serve warm, or store in the refrigerator for convenient meal preparation.
Notes
- Swap out different berries based on season or personal preference, keeping the total volume consistent for best texture.
- Ensure protein powder is thoroughly mixed to avoid clumpy spots in the bake and create a smooth consistency.
- For dairy-free adaptation, replace Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt and use a plant-based protein powder.
- Room temperature ingredients blend more smoothly, so let eggs and milk sit out for 15-20 minutes before mixing.
