If you’re into meal prep (& even if you’re not) this fruity, filling dish is perfect for a week-long breakfast, full of flavor and nutritious foods! Lightly sweetened with maple syrup, bananas, and blueberries, this baked oatmeal has no artificial sweeteners and is also gluten-free and vegan-friendly.
For an additional protein boost, add 1-2 scoops of your favorite protein powder. I recommend using a vanilla or berry flavored protein powder. To keep it vegan, choose a vegan protein powder and to keep it refined sugar free, check the labels! For 1 scoop of protein powder, add an additional ¼ cup almond milk. For 2 scoops of protein powder, add an additional 1/3 cup almond milk.
