Individual baked oats in a ramekin topped with berries

Single Ramekin Protein Baked Oats

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 1 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 0.33 cup rolled oats
  • 1 scoop protein powder vanilla or chocolate, your usual brand
  • 0.5 each banana very ripe, mashed
  • 1 each egg
  • 0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 tsp baking powder

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 350F and oil one 10 ounce ramekin.
  2. Mash the banana thoroughly in the ramekin itself, then whisk in the egg and almond milk. Lumps of banana stay lumpy through baking.
  3. Stir in the oats, cinnamon and baking powder, then fold in the protein powder last with as few strokes as possible.
  4. Let the mixture stand 5 minutes before baking. The oats hydrate and the powder disperses, and this rest is what prevents a dry, dense result.
  5. Bake 22 to 25 minutes, until the top is set and springs back lightly when pressed. A skewer should come out with a few moist crumbs, not clean; baked until fully dry it turns rubbery.
  6. Cool 5 minutes before eating, warm, straight from the ramekin.
