The perfect Protein Cookies and Cream Baked Oats: A sugar-free Oreo protein oatmeal filled with a melty cream cheese center. With the chocolate and cheesecake, this cookies and cream protein powder oatmeal is like having a giant Oreo for breakfast! A gluten free and Vegan option too.
Cream Cheese Filling:
Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a ramekin or oven-safe dish (cooking spray or oil)
Blend all oatmeal ingredients - oats, protein powder, black cacao or cocoa powder, almond milk, Greek yogurt and baking powder - in a small food processor or blender about 30 seconds.
Stir cream cheese filling ingredients - cream cheese, greek yogurt, almond milk and protein powder - in a small bowl until smooth.
Pour ¾ oatmeal mixture into the ramekin/dish, then add cream cheese filling and cover with remaining oatmeal mixture.
Bake for 20-25 minutes. 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 a few minutes, sprinkle on toppings and dig in!
