Healthy Sticky Cinnamon Roll Batter Oatmeal … Yum!

I don’t know about you, but I have certainly been cooking, baking, and eating a TON more than normal the past week. (Okay more than that if you’ve been following me every week and my yummy Christmas sweets the past 2 weeks.) And I decided that now that Christmas is here, it’s time for a healthier kick. And even better than that is that if you’re like me, then you like to trick yourself a bit and still feel like that healthy food you’re eating is still decadent. That is precisely why I settled on this Sticky Cinnamon Roll Batter Oatmeal. Trust me on this…

Sticky Cinnamon Roll Batter Oatmeal

First off, the back story of where this Sticky Cinnamon Roll Batter Oatmeal recipe came from is hilarious. It’s from the site The Big Man’s World, where Arman (an Aussie native) describes how a less than healthy eating experience of his involving a tube of cinnamon rolls inspired him to create this recipe as a healthy inspiration. It’s a funny read!

All I had to see was that this breakfast was healthy and delicious-looking and my curiosity was completely piqued and I had to try it. AND I had everything on hand (or close enough), which is perfect, because I had zero time to go grocery shopping this week.

The Sticky Cinnamon Roll Batter Oatmeal was super easy to make. Just combine rolled oats (or old-fashioned oats), a little salt, sweetener, cinnamon, and almond milk in a sauce pan. A note on the sweetener. I was planning on using some stevia sweetener that I put in my coffee, but I was also doubling the recipe. (It makes 1 serving, but I wanted to make enough for me and my sister.) In doubling the recipe, it would have required at least 16 packets of stevia … so I compromised. I did half stevia and half sugar. But you can get creative here and use your favorite sweetener.

Just heat the mixture over medium and cook for several minutes until the liquid cooks down. Then mix in egg whites and finally add a tablespoon of coconut flour. Then your oatmeal is done!

Let’s not forget the glaze. This glaze could easily top your favorite cinnamon roll recipe in the future. It calls for coconut butter, which I didn’t have on hand, so I used butter instead (no judging – I didn’t use much or use all of the glaze). You’ll mix the melted butter and your favorite vanilla protein powder together. Then whisk in some more almond milk until it’s at a good drizzling consistency. And that’s it. Serve up the oatmeal and drizzle the glaze over the top and enjoy!

I’ll be honest … I wasn’t so sure about this. You kinda think you’ll sacrifice some flavor when you use such healthy ingredients. But it was damn good!

I love that it was comfort food-ish because it was a perfect little breakfast to warm you up from the inside out. And it really did taste like cinnamon rolls! And it was healthy. Yes, I did add white sugar and butter, but the amount added was so little that I felt no guilt there.

I cannot wait for you to try this Sticky Cinnamon Roll Batter Oatmeal recipe ASAP! It has certainly helped make me feel slightly less guilty about all of the indulging I’ve been doing lately. So good. Be sure to click that link for the recipe and step by step instructions. Happy healthy eating!!

  • Yes. Just do it! There are so many reasons we don't do things and excuses we make. News flash: There will never be a perfect time to do the things you want. Just do them. And if they're things you know you need to do but dread them, well just do them anyway. I'm attempting this myself with packing as much of my apartment up as I can in advance. I've also totally embraced budgeting and am finally finding a way to make it fun and exciting! So where are the areas you need to just do it in the life?

  • Ah Sunday....today it's crazy cold so I'm hibernating a bit. I'm trying to spend my day as a mix of productive and relaxing. One of my relaxing tasks has been changing up the skin on my iPad. I loved the bright colors yet airy vibes of this one from @decalgirl. Kinda perfect for Spring and Summer. Now I'm thinking I'll work more on packing and then watch a couple of movies. What are you up to today?!

  • I was in my happy place whipping up these Mixed Berry Scones for the blog! They're filled with blackberries and strawberries from @sprouts plus they're #dairyfree thanks to @earthbalance and @traderjoes for vegan butter and coconut milk respectively as a bonus. Oh yeah they're also crazy delicious with a lovely frustrated but tender and buttery inside. So glad I froze some to enjoy over the next few weeks! If you love sconces, then definitely check out the recipe. You can find it on the link in my bio and then click on Recipe Index. Happy baking!

  • I love this reminder especially on the weekends. It's those little moments with the people you love having a great chat, eating a yummy meal together, bonding over a sports game, an afternoon walk, or just enjoying a favorite show together...those are some of my most cherished moments with my people. How about you?!
