how to make Blueberry Jam Protein Baked Oats

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
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp Swerve
Mixture of granular and brown swerve

Directions :

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Spray a 10 oz. ramekin with nonstick spray.
Toss all of the ingredients for the oats in a small blender. A Nutribullet works great for this! It’s easy to clean and blends everything smoothly. Set the mixture aside.
Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the blueberries, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and Swerve. Gently smash some of the blueberries to release their juices. Heat until the mixture starts bubbling, then remove from heat.
Pour the oat batter into the greased ramekin. Next, add the blueberry filling in the middle of the batter.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. For a gooey texture, aim for the shorter bake time around 25 minutes.
Top your baked oats with a mix of granular and brown Swerve for a sweet, sugary finish. Serve and enjoy!

how to serve Blueberry Jam Protein Baked Oats

tips to make Blueberry Jam Protein Baked Oats

Use rolled oats for the best texture—instant oats won’t work as well.

FAQs

1. Can I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen?
Yes, fresh blueberries can work. Just keep an eye on them while cooking, as they might burst open faster than frozen ones.

2. How can I make this recipe vegan?
To make it vegan, replace the liquid egg whites with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tbsp water) and use a plant-based protein powder.

3. Can I make this ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the oat batter and the blueberry filling the night before. Just assemble and bake in the morning.
