Servings: 1 servings
Ingredients
- 100 g (1 cup) rolled oats
- 15 g (1 ½ tbsp) cocoa powder
- 15 g (1 tbsp) peanut butter or preferred nut butter
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey, to taste
- pinch of salt
- 320 ml (1 ⅓ cup) milk of choice
- 160 g (¾ cup) liquid egg whites or more milk
Topping
- 1 banana sliced
- 1 tbsp peanut butter
Protein Powder Option
- 1 scoop protein powder
Instructions
- In a pot combine rolled oats, cocoa powder, peanut butter, maple syrup and a pinch of salt. Add milk, then cook over medium heat until it starts to simmer, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce heat to low and slowly pour in the egg whites while stirring constantly. This prevents them from clumping and creates a thick, creamy texture.
- Let the oatmeal thicken while stirring for about 2-3 more minutes. Add a splash of milk if it gets too thick.
- Once high calorie oatmeal is ready, transfer to a bowl and top with sliced banana and peanut butter.
Protein Powder Option
- In a small bowl dissolve protein powder in little water or milk (around 1 tbsp) and whisk until the mixture is smoothly combined. Stir protein mixture into your cooked oats before topping.
