Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1.5 cups water or milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
- 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
- 0.5 banana banana, sliced (optional, for topping)
- 1 tablespoon chopped nuts (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the rolled oats and water (or milk).
Heat over medium heat and bring to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Reduce the heat to low and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the protein powder until fully incorporated and creamy.
Mix in the pure maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and chia seeds (if using). Adjust sweetness by adding more maple syrup, if desired.
Transfer the oatmeal to a serving bowl and top with sliced banana and chopped nuts, if using.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Maple Cinnamon Protein Oatmeal!
