This Protein Baked Oats recipe post is sponsored by Four Sigmatic, although the content represents my own personal opinion and experience using the product. When I shared the popular baked oats recipe on my site last week, there were many questions about how to make the recipe without eggs for a vegan option. The egg adds a good source of protein for this breakfast treat and helps create great texture. But these protein baked oats that are made with protein powder and no eggs are just as good!
Protein Powder: You’ll see a majority of recipes for baked oats include protein powder since it adds protein to the breakfast meal. I use plant-based Four Sigmatic, which has a great texture to add to any baked oats. It’s not gritty, grainy, or sandy. Instead it’s a smooth protein blend without gums or fillers! Banana: This adds flavor, sweetness and moisture to the recipe. Maple syrup: To add a touch of sweetness to oats, but you can leave it out if it’s sweet enough with the banana. Baking powder: This helps the baked oats rise while baking.
Blend on high speed for about one minute until the mixture is well combined and pourable.

Cook it faster in the microwave. If you’re making a bunch of these, I found it faster to cook in the microwave with pretty much the same result. Test your microwave at 90 seconds to check for doneness, but it could take up to 2 minutes. You can triple the batch and make them in a muffin tin.
It will take 15 minutes in the oven at 350F. Use a banana instead of milk. You can swap the milk for one medium banana. Make sure it’s ripe though, and it will add a wonderfully sweet taste and creamy texture. Frequently asked questions What kind of oats are best for the recipe? You can use rolled oats, old fashioned oats or quick oats. Just don’t use steel cut oats because they need more cooking time and don’t have the same effect.
