Ingredients

COFFEE CAKE OATMEAL

  • 2 cups gluten-free rolled oats 1 cup blended into flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • 2 mashed bananas
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk

WALNUT TOPPING

  • ¼ cup gluten-free rolled oats
  • ½ cup nuts of choice I used walnuts
  • 1 tbsp gluten-free all purpose flour
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • cup monk fruit brown sugar
  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil

VANILLA GLAZE (optional)

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp whole milk or unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 8x8 inch baking dish with coconut oil or cooking spray. Then add half of your gluten-free rolled oats to a high speed blender and process into a fine flour.
  • In a large bowl, combine oats, oat flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla protein powder.
  • In a separate bowl, mash the bananas until smooth, then whisk in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, eggs, and almond milk. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
  • Add oats, walnuts, flour, cinnamon brown sugar, brown sugar and melted coconut oil to a food processor. Pulse a few times until a crumbly, textured streusel forms. Should resemble wet sand.
  • Pour the oatmeal mixture into the prepared baking dish and evenly sprinkle the blended walnut oat streusel over the top. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the oatmeal is set.
  • Let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup, Greek yogurt, coconut butter or a drizzle of vanilla icing!
