Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups Milk or plant-based milk
- 1 scoop Protein powder
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped nuts (optional)
- 0.5 cup Diced fresh fruit (optional)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and milk. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the mixture comes to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about 5 minutes or until the oats are tender and the mixture reaches your desired consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the protein powder until fully dissolved and incorporated into the oatmeal.
Add the maple syrup, brown sugar, and salt to the oatmeal. Stir well to combine and ensure that the flavors are evenly distributed.
Taste and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more maple syrup or brown sugar, according to preference.
Divide the oatmeal between two bowls. If using, top with nuts and diced fresh fruit for added texture and flavor.
Serve warm and enjoy your wholesome, high-protein breakfast.
