If you are an oatmeal lover and are looking for ways to change up your breakfast, give this recipe a try! It is balanced with healthy fiber, protein, healthy fat and a fresh piece of fruit.
This will keep you full and give you energy for hours! I used steel-cut oats for my breakfast, but you can also use rolled-oats. Add in your favorite fruit if you don’t have an apple handy. You can tailor this to your unique tastes!
APPLE PROTEIN OATMEAL
serves 2
1 cup rolled oats or steel cut oats
1 cup water 1 cup non-dairy milk
1 scoop plant-based protein powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 apple, chopped
Add rolled oats, water, and non-dairy milk to a medium-sized sauce pan over medium heat. Stir until it thickens (about 3-5minutes. Steel cut oats will take a little longer to cook). Next, add protein powder, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Continue to stir to your desired thickness. Add more water or non-dairy milk if needed. Sweeten with a dash of stevia, 100% maple syrup or raw honey. Top with apple. Enjoy!
