In a small cup, dissolve 2 teaspoons of instant espresso coffee powder in 60 milliliters of hot water and stir until fully combined. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, pour 240 milliliters of plain unsweetened oat milk and gently heat it, stirring occasionally to avoid scorching. Do not bring it to a boil.
Once the oat milk is warm, add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder to the saucepan. Whisk continuously until the protein powder is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Add 0.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the oat milk mixture and continue to whisk until combined, then remove the saucepan from the heat.
Pour the prepared espresso into your favorite mug.
Gently pour the oat milk and protein mixture over the espresso. Use a spoon to hold back the foam until the cup is full, then spoon the remaining foam on top.
Optionally, add a pinch of ground cinnamon on top for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your high protein oat milk latte.
