Cinnamon Date Oats

Serving Size

1

Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled or steel-cut oats
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 2 dates, chopped
  • 1 tbsp nut butter
  • 1 scoop of unflavored collagen or plant-based protein powder
  • 2 tbsp walnut pieces
  • ½ tbsp cinnamon
  • Optional: ½ cup blackberries

Directions

  • Combine base ingredients. In a small saucepan, add oats, milk, chopped dates, and cinnamon.
  • Cook over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook until the oats are soft and creamy — about 5–7 minutes for rolled oats or 20–25 minutes for steel-cut oats.
  • Stir in the nut butter and collagen powder until fully dissolved and creamy.
  • If using, spoon into a bowl and top with walnut pieces and blackberries.
  • Serve warm. Enjoy immediately for a cozy, nutrient-dense breakfast rich in fiber, potassium, and the dates' natural sweetness.

Notes

Non-dairy: Use almond or soy milk. Collagen tips: Add collagen after heat removal to preserve texture and prevent clumping. Nut-free: Use sunflower seed butter and pumpkin seeds. Protein: With cow's milk or soy, this has 28-30 g of protein, with almond milk around 21 g. Flavor variations: Add a dash of vanilla extract, sprinkle of sea salt, or top with sliced banana or chia seeds for extra flavor and nutrients.
