How to make Cheesecake Brownie Batter Baked Oats?
The list:
- Oat flour – which is blended rolled oats. If gluten-free, then make sure to use a certified one!
- Unsweetened cacao powder – You can also use dark cocoa powder.
- Chocolate protein powder – Completely optional but feel free to add for a protein boost. It also gives an amazing texture kinda chalky.
- Baking powder
- Milk of choice – I used unsweetened almond milk but you can use any other kind of plant-based or dairy milk.
- Greek yogurt – I use Fage’s 0% greek yogurt but if vegan feel free to use any plant-based yogurt alternative.
- Honey – For the extra hint of sweetness. You can also use maple or date syrup.
- Cream Cheese – I used Philadelphia’s original cream cheese! But if you are vegan, use any plant-based alternative.
- Chocolate chips – Feel free to use any of your choice! In my case I added sugar-free chocolate chips.

Can I prep batter the night before?
The answer is: YES! Make sure to mix all the dry ingredients together in a bowl and the wet ones in another. Then, the next morning mix both together and bake.
Note: I don’t recommend mix everything up in one bowl the night before, as the baking powder can lose effect and therefore the baked oats won’t rise.
How big is this recipe?
I used a 6 oz ramekin. So this baked oats are single serve. Just for YOU.
Want to save for later?
You can store it in the fridge up to 3 days. And when you are ready to eat the rest, microwave it for 45 seconds. Add a splash of milk to moisten it and it’s ready to DEVOUR.
