Anzeige | Frühstücksauflauf 💗 Wenn man morgens keine Zeit hat sich vor den Herd zu stellen, der kann sich sowas machen 😻 Einfach in eine kleine Auflaufform 40 g Haferflocken und 200 ml Wasser/Milch geben. Anschließend für 15 min bei 180 Grad Umluft in den Backofen. Die Toppings sind euch überlassen 🤓 Ich mische gerne schon Blaubeeren unter, da sie erwärmt ein leckeres Aroma abgeben und Zimt darf nie fehlen 👆🏻Ausserdem habe ich hier noch die gefriergetrockneten Himbeeren von @koro_de verwendet und sie sind auch super als Snack (ihr spart mit dem Code „Sarah5“) 🛍 Optional könnt ihr noch Proteinpulver untermischen 🙈 Kcal (mit Wasser und ohne Toppings): 147 KH: 24 g EW: 5 g Fett: 3 g PS: für die, die mir nur hier folgen: ich möchte bald ein Kochbuch rausbringen und auf meinem Hauptkanal @sarahfranssen zeige ich euch in meiner Story schon ein paar Einblicke und ihr könnt mir noch Ideen dalassen 💡 #gesundkochen#gesunderezepte#bakedoatmeal#whatieatinaday
