# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • No flipping, no standing over a hot pan, just mix and bake while you shower or pack your bag.
  • Crazy high protein without any chalky aftertaste, thanks to the yogurt and milk balancing the powder.
  • Endlessly customizable: berries one day, chocolate chips the next, or savory with herbs if you're feeling adventurous.
  • Meal prep friendly and freezer safe, so you can grab breakfast on autopilot all week.
02 -
  • The center will look slightly underdone when hot, but it sets perfectly as it cools, trust the process and don't overbake.
  • Using a bowl smaller than 650 ml will cause overflow and a mess, so measure your ramekin if you're not sure.
  • If your protein powder is unsweetened or unflavored, bump up the sweetener or you'll end up with a bland puck.
03 -
  • Use a bowl you love to eat from, because you'll be eating straight out of it and presentation matters more than you think.
  • If you're gluten-free, make sure both your flour and protein powder are certified, some blends sneak in wheat.
  • For extra fluff, separate the egg, whisk the white to soft peaks, and fold it in last, it takes 30 seconds and makes a noticeable difference.
