Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 cup Water
- 1 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 scoop Vanilla-flavored protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon Almond butter
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup
- 0.5 cup Fresh berries (e.g., blueberries, strawberries)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rolled oats, water, milk, and salt. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Stir occasionally to prevent the oats from sticking to the bottom.
Once the mixture starts to boil, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until the oats are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the vanilla-flavored protein powder until fully integrated and the porridge becomes creamy.
Mix in the chia seeds and let the porridge sit for an additional 1-2 minutes. The chia seeds will thicken the porridge slightly as they absorb the liquid.
Stir in the almond butter and honey (or maple syrup) until the mixture is smooth and all ingredients are well combined.
Divide the porridge into two bowls and top generously with fresh berries.
Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy your nourishing high-protein creamy oats porridge.
