Ingredients

NTS

  • 2 scoops whey vanilla protein (or flavour of choice)
  •  1 egg
  • 1/4 cup almond butter
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 3 small over-ripe bananas (about 1 cup, mashed)
  • 2 courgettes finely grated 
  • 1.5 cups almond milk (any milk will work)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 cups oats
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
  • Optional add-ins: 1/4 cup chocolate chips and/or walnuts

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Spray a muffin tin (I used two, you can also pour the extra batter in a dish for an oatmeal bake) with cooking spray or line with silicone muffin liners.
  2. Place bananas in a large bowl and mash with a fork. Add grated courgette, almond milk, vanilla extract, almond butter, maple syrup, and egg, stirring to combine.
  3. Add oats, protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and add-in’s of choice. Stir until just combined.
  4. Spoon mixture into muffin cups, filling to the top. You will have leftover batter if only using one muffin tin.
  5. Bake for 23-28 minutes, or until a fork/ cake knife comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack. Store cooled oatmeal cups in an air-tight container in the fridge. They will last for a good week or they freeze well, too! Great to grab and go in the morning with a cuppa! I like mine with a little greek yogurt on the side.
