Is this recipe gluten-free?

Yes! High-Protein Blueberry Baked Oats can easily be made gluten-free. Just be sure to use certified gluten-free oats and check your protein powder and baking powder labels to avoid cross-contamination

Can I use brown rice instead of oats?

Not recommended. Oats absorb liquid and soften during baking, creating that classic baked oats texture. Brown rice stays firm and doesn’t blend well with the other ingredients in this recipe.

Can I make this ahead of time?

Absolutely! These oats are ideal for meal prep. Bake a batch, cool it, and store it in individual portions for up to 5 days in the fridge or 3 months in the freezer. They reheat well without drying out.

Is this recipe high-protein?

Definitely. Each serving contains between 25–30g of protein from ingredients like Greek yogurt, protein powder, egg whites, and chia seeds — making this recipe perfect for breakfast, post-workout, or meal prep.
