These Healthy High-Protein Chocolate Baked Oats are the ultimate breakfast for busy mornings. Packed with protein, fiber, and chocolatey goodness, they’ll keep you full and energized for hours and are ready in merely 25 minutes—vegan, oil-free, gluten-free, nut-free, and refined sugar-free, and perfect for meal prep.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, cacao powder, Sunwarrior Chocolate Protein Powder, baking powder, and a pinch of sea salt until fully incorporated.
Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 350°F. (Skip this step if using an air fryer.)
Add the Wet Ingredients
Pour in your plant-based milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup (if using). Stir until a smooth batter forms, then gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Prepare to Bake
Lightly grease two small ramekins or an oven-safe baking dish with cooking spray. Evenly divide the mixture between the dishes.
Oven: Bake for 20 minutes at 350°F.
Air Fryer: Bake for 15 minutes at 390°F.
Cool and Serve
Allow the baked oats to cool for 2–5 minutes. For an extra indulgent touch, top with additional chocolate chips while warm for a gooey, melty finish.
