It’s almost hard to believe that something this delicious can be so macro-friendly, but trust us, these baked oat squares are the perfect healthy treat and taste just like having cake for breakfast. Made without any added sugar and very minimal fat, each square is only 135 calories and provides almost 7g of protein.
Ingredients
- 200 g rolled oats
- 1 scoop Impact Whey Protein (Cinnamon Danish)
- 40 g raisins
- 1 tsp. ginger
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- 400 ml milk
- 1 carrot (grated)
- 75 ml Sugar-Free Syrup (Maple)
- 2 tbsp. water
- 1 tbsp. Powdered Peanut Butter
- Optional toppings: banana slices and chia seeds
Instructions
First add the rolled oats, protein powder, and raisins to a large bowl and mix together to evenly combine.
Next add the ground ginger, baking powder, milk, grated carrot and Sugar-Free Maple Syrup. Stir everything well to get a combined mixture and then carefully pour into a lined baking tray. Leave to chill in the fridge for 1 hour to allow the oats to soak up some of the moisture.
Once chilled, then bake the oats at 180°C for 25 minutes.
Once cooked, carefully remove from the baking tin and allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing up into 9 even squares. Place into zip-lock reusable storage bags and store in the fridge for an easy grab & go breakfast later in the week.
If serving immediately, top with a drizzle of our low-fat Powdered Peanut Butter by mixing a tablespoon of the powder with a few tablespoons of water. Finish with sliced banana and a sprinkle of chia seeds. Delicious.
