Protein Oatmeal
Protein Oatmeal combines rolled oats with banana slices, cinnamon, vanilla, and a pinch of salt, cooked in water or milk until thick and fluffy. Protein powder is stirred in at the end, adding nutritional value and creaminess. The final oatmeal offers a warm, textured breakfast option with natural sweetness and spice, easily customizable with toppings.
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats old fashioned
- ½ banana sliced
- pinch of salt sea salt
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup water or milk
- 1 coop protein powder vanilla
Instructions
- Add oats, banana slices, sea salt, cinnamon, vanilla and water or milk to a pot and stir to combine.
- Heat over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Be sure to stir the oats several times while cooking to make sure the banana slices melt into the oats. You’ll know the oatmeal is done when all the liquid is absorbed and the oats are thick and fluffy.
- Remove oats from the heat and stir in protein powder. If the consistency of the oats gets too thick, add in a little more water or milk. Transfer oats to a bowl and top with your favorite oatmeal toppings.
Notes
- The banana can be omitted if you prefer oatmeal without added natural sweetness.
