Almond Croissant Baked Oats
This almond baked oatmeal is a protein-rich, easy, and delicious meal-prep breakfast for your week. For the cake-like base, cottage cheese is blended with eggs and milk, then mixed with rolled oats, baking powder, fresh apple, and dried apricots. Topped with an almond butter topping with bitter almond flavor, similar to frangipane, the baked oatmeal is baked in the oven and can then be kept in the refrigerator for up to a day. This way, you can enjoy your baked oats cold or warmed up in the morning.

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) using conventional oven settings (top and bottom heat). Grease a baking dish (approximately 20 x 20 cm / 8 x 8 inches) with a little oil or butter. Quarter half an apple and slice it thinly; cut the apricots into thin strips.

Place cottage cheese, eggs, milk, agave syrup, and bitter almond extract in a mixing bowl and blend until smooth using an immersion blender.

Stir the oat flakes, baking powder, apple pieces and apricots into the cottage cheese mixture, pour it into the prepared casserole dish and smooth it out.
- Step 4
In the mixing bowl just used, mix the almond butter, the remaining agave syrup, milk and bitter almond flavoring together until smooth, then spread evenly over the surface of the dough and top with the almond flakes.
