Ingredients

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1.5 cups milk (or a non-dairy alternative like almond or oat milk)
• 1 scoop protein powder (vanilla or unflavored)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon peanut butter (or almond butter)
• 1 teaspoon honey (or maple syrup, optional)
• 1 banana, sliced
• 0.5 cup berries (e.g., blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries)
• 0.25 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the rolled oats and milk. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to simmer.

Step 2

Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the oats have absorbed most of the liquid and reached your desired texture.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the protein powder and chia seeds, ensuring everything is well combined.

Step 4

Divide the oatmeal into two bowls. Top each serving with 0.5 tablespoon of peanut butter, a drizzle of honey (if desired), and your sliced banana and berries.

Step 5

Sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon for garnish if you like.

Step 6

Serve warm and enjoy your hearty, protein-packed breakfast!
