Scale
Main Ingredients
- 0.5 cups Steel Cut Oats
- 1 cup Soy Milk
- 1 cup Water
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 scoops Vanilla Protein Powder
- 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, combine the steel cut oats, soy milk, water, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to mix all ingredients evenly.
- Cook the Oats: Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 25-30 minutes until the oats are tender and the mixture has thickened to a creamy consistency.
- Add Protein Powder and Sweeten: Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the vanilla protein powder and maple syrup thoroughly until fully combined, adjusting sweetness if desired.
- Serve: Spoon the creamy protein steel cut oats into bowls and enjoy immediately for a warm and energizing breakfast.
Notes
- Use low-fat or unsweetened soy milk if you prefer a lighter version.
- For added texture, consider topping with fresh berries or sliced nuts.
- You can substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup if preferred.
- Adjust the protein powder quantity to suit your dietary needs.
- Stir frequently during cooking to prevent oats from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
