A thick, creamy, and satisfying high-protein breakfast that takes less than 10 minutes to make and keeps you full for hours.

Ingredients

Scale

50 g rolled oats
30 g protein powder (vanilla or chocolate recommended)
240 ml milk of choice or water
1 pinch salt
1 tsp maple syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Place the rolled oats, liquid (milk or water), and a pinch of salt in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
  3. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and reached a creamy consistency.
  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, cinnamon, and maple syrup.
  5. Allow the oats to cool for 1 minute, then add the protein powder.
  6. Whisk or stir vigorously until the protein powder is fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
  7. Pour into a bowl and add your favorite toppings like fruit or nuts if desired.

Notes

  • Never boil the protein powder directly as it may clump.
  • If using plant-based protein, you may need an extra splash of milk as it absorbs more liquid than whey protein.
