Low Calorie Nutella Baked Oats Ingredients:
This protein Nutella baked oatmeal is made with 6 simple healthy ingredients and perfect for a quick single serve baked oats too!
- Instant or Quick Oats; Gluten free if needed.
- Vanilla Protein Powder as the sweetener, and also makes it a protein Nutella oatmeal recipe. I use Quest vanilla protein powder for this recipe.
- Unsweetened Almond Milk: To keep the baked oatmeal dairy free and sugar free, but use regular milk if you wish.
- Non Fat Greek Yogurt for even more high protein oatmeal
- Baking Powder
- Sugar-free Nutella! I used the monk-fruit sweetened Nutella substitute – Suntella – from Lakanto for this oats recipe since it’s sugar free.

How to make Nutella Baked Oatmeal without Egg
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Grease a ramekin or oven-safe dish with coconut oil or cooking spray. You want one that’s about 1 cups or 8 ounces in volume. - Process the oats the dry ingredients (oats, vanilla protein powder and baking powder) in a food processor about 30 seconds until fine and torn up.
- Transfer oats to bowl, add in all ingredients except nutella – protein powder, almond milk, Greek yogurt, baking powder.
Stir until the mix is uniform. - Pour ⅔ mixture into the ramekin.
Add the Nutella in the center.
Pour remaining mixture and cover well. - Bake 25 minutes. The top of the oats will look wet, but they’re cooked. You’ll have something like creamy oats top, but completely baked oats all around. Don’t over bake it or the bottom and sides will completely dry out.
Cool a bit, add some sugar-free chocolate chips or chocolate syrup and dig in! (code HAYLSKITCHEN gets you a discount off Lakanto!)
Alternatives for Nutella Oats
For a regular Nutalla oats recipe
Replace the protein powder with 2 tablespoons worth of your choice of sweetener; To keep this recipe healthy and sugar free, I recommend Lakanto’s 1:1 monkfruit sugar substitute. Code HAYLSKITCHEN gets you a discount here too.
To make Nutella Baked Oats Vegan
For a vegan Nutella baked oatmeal, make sure you use a plant based protein powder and coconut yogurt.
You also want to make sure you use the Vegan Nutella substitute I use from Lakanto, or try my homemade recipe.
Banana Nutella Oatmeal!
Replace the yogurt in this recipe with mashed banana – and also reduce some of the protein powder to prevent extra sweetness; This gives you a creamy banana Nutella baked oats without yogurt.
