A simple, skinny Oreo Protein Bread Pudding with protein powder, egg whites, yogurt and actual Oreo cookies! This healthy cookies and cream bread pudding is a great protein packed breakfast, dessert and even post workout treat!
Jump to RecipeJust a slight adaptation of the chocolate protein bread pudding I made a while ago, but a real good one since it’s got that cookies and cream goodness with the Oreo.
And so so much protein in this skinny bread pudding as well! Kind of a triple protein game here with the protein powder, egg whites and Greek yogurt too.
It sounds fancy, but this Oreo bread pudding really is quite minimalistic; I actually put it together in the middle of a busy work week!
Ingredients for Oreo Protein Bread Pudding
This healthy Oreo protein bread pudding recipe is made with just a few simple and healthy ingredients; No egg, cream or sugar, making this a great skinny bread pudding recipe too!
- Whole Wheat Bread, or any other
- Chocolate Protein Powder needed for high protein bread pudding and also replaces the ‘sugar’.
I used part whey-casein Chocolate flavor from Quest Nutrition, and part whey Chocolate from Dymatize for this recipe. - Dirt Pudding or Cookes & Cream flavor Cashew Butter – from American Dream Nut Butter. It’s lower fat and higher protein than normal, and just amazing (code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount on these).
ADNB has other amazing flavors that would work well here too. - Unsweetened Cocoa Powder or Cacao Powder
- Unsweetened Almond Milk or regular milk
- Greek Yogurt to replace the heavy cream and make a fat free Oreo bread pudding
- Egg Whites
And for the proper cookies and cream stuffed bread pudding:
- Oreo aka Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
- Candy Coated Chocolate; I recommend the ones from Lily’s; Regular M&Ms work too.
Or if you like, Sugar-free Chocolate Sandwich Cookies; I recommend the Keto friendly Chocolate Vanilla Sandwich Cookies from Catalina Crunch for a healthy cookies and cream cookie bread pudding.
For the Cookies and Cream Protein Bread Pudding Icing
- The ‘cream’ from the Sandwich Cookie
- Vanilla Protein Powder (same as above)
- Unsweetened Almond Milk
