Recipe: Healthy Oatmeal Cookie Dough Breakfast Bake

This past weekend I was looking for a healthy and delicious recipe for a special breakfast.  I remembered seeing an Instagram post the previous week with a recipe for a breakfast bake that I had wanted to try out.  Yes, you heard that right.  I actually found a new recipe somewhere other than Pinterest!  Shocking, I know...

I already had all of the ingredients, so I decided to go ahead and make it.  I had heard that you could also cook the dough in the microwave for 2 minutes, but for my first try I wanted to follow the recipe exactly the way it was written and use the oven.  It turned out fantastic and was so tasty & filling.  I liked it so much that the next day I made the brownie batter breakfast bake from the same website.  

Here is the link to access the original post from Running With Spoons in case you want to see her other recipes.  And here is the Oatmeal Cookie Dough Breakfast Bake  recipe for you to try:

Ingredients:
  • 1 Tbsp. almond butter (or other nut butter)
  • ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 tsp. maple syrup
  • ½ tsp. vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp. baking powder
  • pinch of salt
  • ¼ cup rolled oats
  • 2 Tbsp. almond meal*
  • 1 Tbsp. chocolate chips**

Instructions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350F and grease a small ramekin or oven-safe dish. Set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, combine almond butter, applesauce, maple syrup, vanilla, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until fully combined. Add oats and almond meal, stirring until you're left with a sticky dough. Mix in chocolate chips.
  3. Transfer dough to your greased ramekin, topping with a few extra chocolate chips and a sprinkle of sea salt if desired. Bake for 18-20 minutes, depending on desired consistency.

Notes:
* If you don't have almond meal, you can replace it with an equal amount of oat flour. To make oat flour, simply grind rolled oats in a food processor or blender until they reach a floury consistency.
** Feel free to sub with raisins or nuts for some added nutrition.
