Ready for a breakfast that is healthy but tastes like a decadent comfort food? Perfect, then this oatmeal is for you! It tastes just like cinnamon rolls!
Recipe type: Breakfast
Cuisine: American
Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
  • ½ cup Old-Fashioned Oats (Rolled Oats)
  • Pinch Sea Salt
  • 2 T granulated Sweetener of choice (I used a half sugar half Truvia sweetener mixture and it was great)
  • Dash of Cinnamon (plus extra cinnamon for dusting the finished oatmeal)
  • 1 cup Dairy Free Milk of choice (I went with no sugar added Almond Milk)
  • 1 large egg white (or 1 flax egg if you're vegan)
  • 1 T Coconut Flour
  • For the Cinnamon Roll Glaze:
  • 1 T Butter, melted (or Coconut Butter for a healthier option)
  • 1 T Vanilla Protein Powder (I like Tone it Up's Perfect Fit protein powder)
  • Almond Milk to thin out
  • Cinnamon for dusting
Preparation Instructions
  1. Begin by combining the oats, sea salt, sweetener, cinnamon, and milk in a medium sized sauce pan. Heat it over medium heat and cook until the liquid is reduced quite a bit. (You may think it won't cook down enough but it will, so just keep cooking it.)
  2. Once the oat mixture is a more oatmeal-like consistency, add the egg white and stir so that it's really well combined. Then add the coconut flour and stir it well so it's completely combined.
  3. Time for the glaze! Just whisk the melted butter and protein powder together. Then add enough milk to it to make the glaze a good, drizzling consistency.
  4. Serve up the oatmeal right away and drizzle the glaze over the oatmeal. Top with a light dusting of cinnamon and enjoy!!
