Healthy Almond Croissan Baked Oats

• tempo totale: 27 minutes

Ingredienti

Inspired by the flavors of a French bakery—without the sugar crash!)

Why it’s good for diabetics:

These almond croissant baked oats deliver the rich, nutty flavor of an indulgent pastry but with steady blood-sugar support. Oats are high in soluble fiber (especially beta-glucan), which slows glucose absorption. Almonds and Greek yogurt add healthy fats and protein to keep you full longer and reduce post-meal spikes. Plus, this recipe skips refined sugar and uses natural sweeteners in moderation for sustained energy.

Ingredients (Serves 1)

½ cup old-fashioned oats

½ cup unsweetened almond milk

¼ cup nonfat Greek yogurt

1 tbsp almond butter

1 tbsp sliced almonds (plus a few for topping)

1 tsp vanilla extract

½ tsp almond extract

½ tsp baking powder

1–2 tsp maple syrup or monk fruit sweetener (optional)

Pinch of salt

Istruzioni

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix oats, almond milk, Greek yogurt, almond butter, vanilla, almond extract, baking powder, and salt. Sweeten lightly if desired. Pour mixture into a greased ramekin or small baking dish. Sprinkle with sliced almonds on top. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden and set. Let cool slightly before eating—it tastes like the inside of an almond croissant but nourishes your body instead of spiking your blood sugar.
