Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats (192 grams)
  • 2 scoops Optimum Nutrition Vanilla Plant Based Protein Powder (76 grams)
  • 3 chai tea bags
  • 1/2 tsp each: baking powder, cinnamon, ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp each: cardamom, nutmeg, all spice
  • 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (8 oz)
  • 2/3 cup unsweetened applesauce (165 grams)
  • 1 1/2 cups pear, cubed (240 grams)
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup (1 1/2 oz)

Optional Pecan Topping

  • 1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp oat flour
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 10" cast iron skillet with butter or coconut oil and set aside.
  • Heat almond milk to the point of almost boiling, then add tea bags and steep for 5 minutes. Remove bags and allow almond milk to cool.
  • Combine dry ingredients in a bowl, then add wet ingredients and mix until combined. Pour into greased skillet and spread evenly.
  • If using pecan crumble topping, melt butter in the microwave and toss with pecans, brown sugar, and oat flour. Crumble on top of oatmeal.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until no longer very soft to the touch in the center. (It may take up to 40 minutes depending on the thickness of the oatmeal if you use a smaller baking dish or skillet.)
