Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 large egg
- ¾ cup old-fashioned oats
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 coop vanilla or chocolate protein powder (I used a 19.5 gram scoop) optional
- avocado or olive oil for cooking
Toppings:
- Greek yogurt, berries, peanut butter, chopped nuts
Instructions
- Mash the banana in a bowl until smooth. Stir in the egg, oats, cinnamon, and protein powder (if using), until well combined.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and spray with a little oil. When hot, pour in the oatmeal mixture and spread it evenly in the pan with a spatula. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes until the oats are slightly set. Then, flip the mixture and break it into pieces, scrambling it like you would with eggs, until it turns golden brown.
- Serve scrambled oats in a bowl and top with toppings like Greek yogurt, fresh berries, and peanut butter.

Notes
- Make sure your skillet is preheated to medium heat before adding the oat mixture. This will help the oats cook evenly and develop that delicious golden brown color.
- Don’t rush the scrambling process. Allow the mixture to set slightly in the pan before you start breaking it up.
- I like to top my oats with Greek yogurt, berries, and peanut butter for a balanced breakfast. However, feel free to get creative with your toppings to add extra flavor and nutrients to your morning meal. See "Scrambled Oats Toppings Ideas" section in the blog post for some ideas.
