Notes

Servings:

This recipe makes one serving, but it can easily be doubled, tripled, quadrupled, or more for meal prep for your week, or to share with the entire family.

Storage:

This recipe tastes best fresh, but the baked oats can also be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week, or frozen for up to 3 months to save for later. Just be sure to heat up your baked oats in a microwave when you’re ready to dig in.

Topping ideas:

You can top your serving of baked oats with more sugar free dark chocolate chips, peanut butter, your favorite nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Substitutions:

Almond milk: Any type of unsweetened milk, like soy, will work in this no sugar added recipe.

Erythritol: To keep the sugar low, you can also try using another type of sugar substitute in this recipe.

Unsweetened cocoa powder: a low-sugar chocolate protein powder may also work well if you are interested in adding in some extra protein.
