Energy Oatmeal

Serving Size

1

Ingredients

  • 1⁄2 cup oats
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 scoop protein powder
  • 1 tbsp almond butter
  • 1 tsp hemp seeds
  • 2 tbsp almond milk
  • 1 banana, sliced

Directions

  • In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Add the 1⁄2 cup oats and cook according to package instructions (usually around 5 minutes for rolled oats). For steel-cut oats, use 1 cup water to 1⁄4 cup oats and simmer for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and have absorbed the water.
  • Once the oats are cooked, stir in 1 scoop of protein powder, 1 tbsp almond butter, and 2 tbsp almond milk until well combined and creamy.
  • Slice one banana and place the slices on top of the oatmeal.
  • Stir everything together for extra creaminess, or enjoy as is with the banana on top!

Notes

Substitutions: Use your other favorite nut butter or fruit. Steel-Cut Oats: If you prefer steel-cut oats, they offer a chewier texture and slightly more protein and fiber. Simply increase the cooking time to 20-30 minutes and adjust the water ratio (1 cup water to 1/4 cup oats). For a smoother consistency, you can add a bit more liquid. Protein content: ~ 31.5 g
