Oats are a great choice for breakfast. Don’t worry, I didn’t forget about the protein! This Raspberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats recipe includes cottage cheese, which has 14 grams of protein per serving. For those of you who hear “cottage cheese” and run for the hills, stick with me. After combining the oats, cottage cheese and almond milk with the berries, honey and vanilla and allow to sit in the fridge overnight, you’ll have a delicious breakfast waiting for you in the morning…and you won’t think twice about the cottage cheese.

For an extra-healthy, protein-rich boost, top off the Raspberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats with hemp seeds and you’ll have a full 30 grams of protein without using eggs or protein powder. Hemp seeds are a great plant-based source of protein and full of essential amino acids. Of course, you can always eat the Raspberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats straight out of the container, but you are welcome to top it with raspberries, your favorite nuts, yogurt, granola or nut butter—get creative and enjoy!

1. Oatmeal is perfect for meal prepping for the week.

I love to bake this Baked Maple Protein Oatmeal recipe on Sundays to ensure I have either a healthy breakfast to grab when I am on-the-go or for when I need a mid-afternoon pick-me-up snack. I love how absolutely simple it is to meal prep. Just stir all the ingredients together, transfer to a baking dish and bake! 

2. It’s kid-friendly!

3. I love all things maple!

As much as I love eating a plate of pancakes drenched in maple syrup, I know it’s a complete sugar bomb and should only be something I treat myself to from time to time. This Baked Maple Protein Oatmeal gives me that same delicious maple flavor without all the processed sugar by using maple extract and stevia drops instead.

4. It’s filled with protein.

It’s important to include protein into your breakfast, but for me it’s not always the easiest thing to do. Between the Afterburn and Greek yogurt, one slice of this Baked Maple Protein Oatmeal gives me 13 grams of clean protein.

5. It’s gluten-free and contains zero added sugars!

I feel so much better when I remove both gluten and sugar from my diet. I not only feel more energized, but I notice my complexion to be more clear and I feel less bloated. Sometimes it can be hard to find a quick breakfast on the go, that is gluten-free, sugar-free and high-protein. Thankfully, this Baked Maple Protein Oatmeal is all three!
