Inspired by a salted caramel brownie, these deliciously fluffy baked oats are like eating dessert for breakfast! Packed full of protein and nutrients too, these are a great healthy alternative for not just breakfast, but when you’re feeling peckish throughout the day and in need of something hearty and warming.
To complete this breakfast, we’ve made a healthier salted caramel sauce to top the oats with - this is an optional step and we promise they will taste just as good without as it does with!
For the baked oats:
- 55g The Great British Porridge Co High Protein Low Sugar Porridge
- 80ml Mighty Salted Caramel M*lk
- 1tsp Baking Powder
- 1 x Banana
- ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
- A pinch of salt
For the optional healthier salted caramel sauce:
- 80ml Mighty Salted Caramel M*lk
- 1tbsp Coconut Sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 1tsp Coconut oil
- ½ tsp Vanilla Essense
Recipe
- We’ll start off by making the sauce; this can be done the night before and stored in the fridge until you’re ready to use it. Simply add all of your ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil. Once bubbling away, you’re then going to want to leave it to simmer on a low heat for at least 30 minutes, or until it has thickened nicely - remembering to stir regularly. Once it has thickened, resembling a sauce, remove it from the heat, transfer it into an airtight glass, and leave it to cool before popping it into the fridge until you’re ready to use it.
- Onto the baked oats - start by preheating your oven to 180 degrees, then add all of your baked oats ingredients into a blender and whiz together. The mixture will need to resemble a thick, creamy milkshake.
- Once all of the ingredients are well combined, transfer them into an oven-proof dish and bake for around 20 minutes or until they’re golden brown on top.
- Remove from the oven, top with your sauce, and enjoy!
If you’re also looking to get in one of your five-a-day try topping it with some seasonal fruits of your choice.
