Chef's Note
For the best texture, use old-fashioned rolled oats rather than quick oats. This oatmeal reheats beautifully, making it perfect for meal prep. Simply portion into containers after cooling and refrigerate for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions with a splash of milk for a quick, nutritious breakfast.

Ingredients
2 cups rolled oats
4 scoops protein powder (vanilla)
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
4 large eggs
2 cups unsweetened almond milk
1 cup Greek yogurt (2% fat)
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 medium apples (preferably Honeycrisp or Granny Smith)
1 cup walnuts, chopped
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1/4 cup flaxseed, ground
Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil.
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of rolled oats, 4 scoops of vanilla protein powder, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg, and 1/4 cup of ground flaxseed. Mix well to ensure even distribution of spices.
- 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 2 cups of unsweetened almond milk, 1 cup of Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract until smooth.
- 4
Peel, core, and dice 2 of the apples into 1/2-inch cubes. Slice the remaining apple thinly for topping.
- 5
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until well combined. Fold in the diced apples and 3/4 cup of the chopped walnuts, reserving the rest for topping.
- 6
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Arrange the apple slices on top in an attractive pattern and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of walnuts.
- 7
Drizzle the top with the remaining 1 tablespoon of melted coconut oil.
- 8
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the oatmeal is set and the top is golden brown.
- 9
Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. The oatmeal will firm up slightly as it cools.
