Allergens

Contains: gluten, milk, peanuts

Storage and reheating

  • Fridge: up to 4 days
  • Freezer: not recommended
  • Serve chilled; reheating is not recommended because the protein powder can become gritty.

Ingredient substitutions

Rolled oat

  • Certified gluten free rolled oat: The texture remains close to regular rolled oats.

Chocolate protein powder

  • Vanilla protein powder with cocoa: Use the same weight and keep the cocoa in the recipe for a chocolate flavor.

Peanut butter

  • Powdered peanut butter: Use less by weight because it is drier and lower in fat.

Milk

  • Water: The oats will be less creamy and slightly less rich.

Cocoa

  • Chocolate protein powder: Use only if extra cocoa is unavailable, noting the chocolate taste will be milder.

Salt

  • No salt: Omit for a lower sodium version.
