Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 2 cups Water
- 1 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 0.5 cup Blueberries
- 1 scoop Protein powder (vanilla-flavored)
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 tablespoons Almond slivers (optional topping)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, bring the 2 cups of water to a boil.
Once boiling, stir in the rolled oats and reduce the heat to medium. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the oats begin to thicken.
Add the milk to the saucepan and continue cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes until creamy and thick, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the vanilla-flavored protein powder, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Fold in the blueberries gently, allowing them to heat through. This should take about 1 minute.
Remove from heat and let the oatmeal sit for a minute to continue absorbing the flavors.
Divide the oatmeal into two bowls and top with almond slivers if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy your nutritious high protein blueberry oatmeal!
