Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh mixed berries
- 0.25 cup chopped almonds
- 1 medium banana, sliced
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine rolled oats, water, almond milk, and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine.
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla protein powder, honey, and cinnamon. Mix well until the protein powder is fully incorporated and the oatmeal is creamy.
Divide the oatmeal between two bowls.
Top each bowl with fresh mixed berries, sliced banana, and chopped almonds, dividing the toppings evenly.
Serve immediately, and enjoy a delicious, high-protein breakfast to start your day!
