And, if you’re looking to make this a bit healthier, we suggest changing the icing to coconut whipped cream. That will give you more staying power and balance the carbs nicely. And, you can easily omit the maple syrup and toss in a couple of dates instead!

Don’t wait to celebrate! Start your special day with a joyful bowl of gluten-free baked oats.

(Psst — perfect for half and quarter-birthdays too!)

How This Birthday Cake Gluten-Free Baked Oatmeal Recipe is Better

By using our Double Protein Oats as the base of this recipe, you get about 10g of protein and 7g of fiber per serving and more iron than typical oats.
Poppyseeds not only add crunch but also has an ample amount of the amino acid lysine to complete the protein in the oats. That means you get maximum digestibility and nutrition.
We also love poppy seeds because they have loads of trace minerals and fiber.
You can substitute dates for the maple sugar and unsweetened coconut whipped cream for the icing to remove the added sugar.
The banana adds potassium and other phytonutrients and fiber to support your immune system.
