Ingredients You’ll Need

Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.

  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1 medium banana, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup

Let’s Get Started

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and lightly grease an oven-safe bowl or small baking dish (about 12–16 ounces in size).

  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the oat flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until evenly combined and lump-free.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until slightly frothy. Add the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract, and whisk until smooth.

  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. The batter should be thick but pourable. If it feels too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of almond milk.

  5. Transfer the batter into the prepared bowl and smooth the top with a spoon.

  6. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. The top should feel springy to the touch.

  7. Let the baked base cool for about 5 minutes. This helps it firm up slightly while staying soft and tender inside.

  8. Spread the Greek yogurt evenly over the top like “pizza sauce.” Drizzle with peanut butter, then arrange banana slices over the surface.

  9. Finish with a light drizzle of honey or maple syrup before serving.

Servings and Pairing

This recipe makes 1 generous breakfast bowl or 2 smaller servings. Pair it with fresh berries or a side of scrambled eggs if you want even more protein. It’s also great with a hot cup of coffee or a smoothie.

Variations

  • Swap peanut butter for almond or cashew butter.

  • Add chocolate chips to the batter for a sweeter twist.

  • Use chocolate protein powder for a different flavor base.

  • Top with strawberries or blueberries instead of banana.

  • Stir chia seeds into the batter for added texture.

Storage Tips

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the base gently in the microwave for 20–30 seconds before adding fresh toppings. For best texture, add yogurt and banana just before serving.

FAQs

Can I make this dairy-free?

Yes. Use dairy-free yogurt and ensure your protein powder is dairy-free.

Can I make this in the microwave?

You can microwave the batter in a microwave-safe bowl for 2–3 minutes, checking every 30 seconds until set. The texture will be slightly softer.

What if I don’t have oat flour?

Blend rolled oats in a blender until finely ground to make your own oat flour.

Final Thoughts

This High-Protein Breakfast Pizza Bowl turns a simple baked oat base into something fun, satisfying, and nourishing. It’s cozy, customizable, and makes busy mornings feel a little more special — without any complicated steps.
