Clean Eating Cinnamon Vanilla Oatmeal

After returning home from a trip to California I didn't have much food prepped but I needed protein and carbs to fuel my workout so I make proats! Proats = Protein + Oats. They were so delicious! It was the perfect pre-workout meal for me and I've eaten it almost every day for breakfast since! Make them Gluten-Free by using Gluten-Free oats!

CINNAMON VANILLA PROATS

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup rolled or quick cooking gluten free oats
• 1 packet TLS whey protein
• 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond milk
• 1 Tbsp pasteurized liquid egg whites
• 1/2-1 packet Truvia
• 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract (avoid HFCS)
• Cinnamon, to taste
• Sea Salt, to taste

Directions:

1. Add hot (boiling) water to oats mixture
2. Add almond milk and egg whites
3. Heat in microwave for 30 sec to 1 min
4. Add protein powder and other remaining ingredients and stir
5. Enjoy

Eat Clean Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls

Ingredients:

Dough:

• 1/2 c gluten free oat flour
• 1/3 c almond flour
• 1/4 c arrowroot flour 
• 2 TBSP coconut palm sugar OR demerara sugar
• 4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp sea salt, finely ground
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 4 TBSP coconut oil, room temperature 
• 3/4 c unsweetened almond milk

Filling:

• coconut oil, room temperature
• 1/4 c stevia, powdered
• 3 TBSP cinnamon

Directions:

1. Begin making the dough first. Combine dry ingredients in a food processor and pulse to combine and create a softer flour mixture, on and off for 45-60 seconds. Add wet ingredients and mix to combine.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

3. Combine filling ingredients in a small bowl.

4. Place dough on a floured surface (I would suggest using the arrowroot flour for this) and roll out to flatten to approximately 1/4"-1/3" thickness. Try to roll the dough in a rectangular shape.

5. Brush a small amount of coconut oil evenly on the dough. 

6. Sprinkle the filling mixture evenly across the moistened dough.

7. Roll the dough starting at one end until it is all contained. Using a pizza wheel, cut the dough into approximately 8-9 cinnamon rolls.

8. Place on a cookie sheet approximately 1.5" apart OR in a round pan, close together for softer cinnamon rolls.

9. Bake approximately 14 minutes.

Makes 8-9 cinnamon rolls.
