Chocolate for breakfast? Count me in!This Baked Oatmeal recipe tastes so much more indulgent than it is and the combination of dark chocolate and blackberries is just too delicious. Trust me: It will be hard to stop at just one piece!
For preparation, just cut it into pieces and store in to-go containers. You can use frozen blackberries or fresh—whatever is more available at that time. It's also fun to put a little bit of dark chocolate shavings on the top to make it appear richer. Alternatives, like a bit of syrup or homemade blackberry sauce, are excellent options too! Then, to up your collagen intake, add in Vital Proteins Dark Chocolate Blackberry Collagen Peptides. It blends really easily and gives this Baked Oatmeal a delicious dark chocolate-berry flavor.
