Ingredients

1/2 cup oat flour

1 scoop (30g) vanilla protein powder

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

2–3 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt

1–2 tablespoons almond milk

1 tablespoon almond butter or light cream cheese

1 teaspoon cinnamon (for filling)

1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey

1 tablespoon Greek yogurt (for icing)

1 teaspoon powdered sweetener or maple syrup (for icing)

Splash of vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) or air fryer to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and cinnamon.
  3. Add Greek yogurt and gradually mix in almond milk until a soft dough forms.
  4. Roll the dough between parchment paper into a thin rectangle.
  5. Mix almond butter or cream cheese with cinnamon and maple syrup, then spread evenly over the dough.
  6. Roll both long sides inward until they meet in the center.
  7. Slice into pieces and shape each into a heart by pinching the bottom.
  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes or air fry for 6–8 minutes until lightly golden.
  9. Mix icing ingredients and drizzle over warm hearts before serving.

Notes

Use parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Vanilla protein powder works best for flavor.

Skip icing for a lower-sugar option.

Add diced apples or cocoa powder for variations.
