Flavor-packed Protein Baklava Baked Oats for a healthy and tasty dessert for breakfast! This high protein baklava baked oatmeal uses protein powder, Greek yogurt, egg whites and sugar free maple syrup!
Filling:
Preheat oven to 350°F, and lline an 8” x 8" baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang (or grease).
In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients - oats, protein powder, Greek yogurt, almond milk, egg whites, baking powder, cinnamon and cardamom.
In a small bowl, mix chopped pistachio, walnuts, maple syrup and cinnamon.
Pour ½ mixture into prepared dish and flatten with back of a spoon or spatula.
Spread most pistachio mixture in the middle (reserve some for top).
Cover with remaining oat mixture, top with more pistachio.
Bake for 22-25 minutes until center is just set. The top will be slightly wet in the middle, but that’s expected. Cooking longer will make the oats dry on the inside.
Let cool for about 10-15 minutes, remove from pan using overhang, and let cool completely.
Slice into bars and enjoy!
