Ingredients

1 1/2 cups oat flour
1 cup protein powder * See notes
1/2 cup peanut butter or any nut or seed butter
1/4 cup maple syrup ** See notes

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine your oat flour and protein powder and set aside. In a microwave safe bowl, add the peanut butter and maple syrup and microwave until the peanut butter has melted. Whisk into the maple syrup until combined.
Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a thick dough remains. Divide the dough into two and place one portion in a separate mixing bowl. Add cocoa powder to one of the bowls and mix together until combined.
Using your hands, roll small balls of dough and place them onto the lined baking tray. Bake the cereal for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are beginning to firm up.
Remove the oven from the oven and let the cereal cool completely.

Notes

One serving is a heaping cup (240 ml).

For a chocolate cereal, fold through 1/4 cup of cocoa powder.

* Casein protein powder and brown rice protein powder are the best kinds of protein to use.

** For a lower carb and sugar free option, use keto maple syrup or keto honey.

TO STORE: Like other cereal, this one can be stored at room temperature, in a sealable container or jar. It will keep well for up to 2 weeks.

TO FREEZE: The cereal cannot be frozen in its entirety. Instead, pour single-serving portions of the cereal in ziplock bags and store them in the freezer for up to 6 months.
