A cozy, single-serve High-Protein Banana Foster Cobbler made with caramelized bananas, a golden protein oat crumble, and creamy vanilla Greek yogurt. Delivers ~28–32g protein without mixing protein powder into the yogurt (trust me on that one). Perfect as a post-workout dessert, high-protein breakfast, or muscle-building treat that actually tastes indulgent.

Ingredients
 

Banana Layer

  • 2 whole bananas, sliced
  • 1 tsp butter
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp rum extract
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt

Crumble

  • ⅓ cup rolled oats
  • 1 scoop protein powder
  • 1 tbsp grated coconut
  • 2 tbsp pecans, chopped
  • 1 tbsp butter, cold
  • 1 tsp almond milk

Topping

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 pinch cinnamon
  • 1 pinch flake salt

Instructions
 

  • Caramelize bananas in butter, maple, vanilla and rum extracts, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Transfer to ramekin.
  • Mix crumble ingredients and sprinkle on top.
  • Bake at 350°F for 10–12 minutes.
  • Top with vanilla Greek yogurt.
  • Serve warm.

Notes

  • If your crumble feels too dry, add almond milk 1 teaspoon at a time until it reaches a crumbly (not wet) consistency.
  • For best caramelization, use very ripe bananas with brown speckles.
  • Whey or whey/casein blend protein powders bake best. Plant-based protein may require slightly more liquid.
  • Let the cobbler cool for 3–5 minutes before topping with yogurt to prevent melting.
  • To reduce sweetness, skip the honey drizzle, the bananas are naturally sweet.
  • For meal prep: bake the cobbler ahead of time and add fresh yogurt just before serving.
