Stove Top Protein Oats

This oats recipe is a hearty and healthy breakfast that's both satisfying and customizable to your taste.

Start with a base of old-fashioned or steel-cut oats, cooked to perfection in your choice of unsweetened milk (like almond milk) or water. Enhance the nutritional value with a dash of chia, psyllium husk, or flaxseed (or 1 tablespoon of husk powder).

For a protein punch, add a serving of your favorite flavored protein. To bring in creaminess and even more protein, stir in nonfat Greek yogurt. Top it all off with a dollop of nut butter, whether it's almond, peanut, or any variety you prefer.

This Stove Top Protein Oats recipe is a versatile and delicious way to kickstart your day with a boost of energy and nutrition. Customize it to your liking and savor every spoonful!

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/4 c old fashioned or steel cut oats

  • 3/4 c unsw milk of choice (usually unsw almond) or water

  • 2 T chia, Psyllium husk, flaxseed (1 T husk powder)

  • 1 serving flavored protein

  • 1/3 c nonfat Greek yogurt

  • 1-2 T nut butter, for topping

    STEPS

  1. Combine oats and milk or water over medium heat. Add chia or flax and whisk constantly. If using husk, wait and add after with protein. Cook for about 3 minutes, remove from heat, and pour into a bowl. Whisk in protein, husk if using, and yogurt.

  2. Top with 1-2 T nut butter for healthy fats.

    Notes: You can soak your oats in water overnight for easier digestion or buy sprouted oats and that step is not for you. I digest just fine without soaking but “sprouted” everything is so trendy right now. So that’s how you sprout, soak in water. You can also buy sprouted oats on the Amazon link.
