Pimped up Protein Oats
The very humble rolled oat can be extremely versatile and we love to play around with them as a base for lots of our recipes. In particular, our pimped up, protein and nutrient packed soaked oats are a favourite and a staple in our households. They are the perfect quick breakie on the go, they satisfy even the fussiest of 'sweet tooth' (without the blood sugar rollercoaster) and they include up to 40grams of protein for sustained energy and guaranteed satisfaction!
Ingredients
- 1 scoop SSH Protein Powder vanilla or chocolate
- 1/2 cup whole rolled oats or gluten free option
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1 tbsp ground flax seeds
- 1 cup water or milk (use more liquid for desired consistency)
- 2 tbsp light greek yoghurt
- 1/2 cup mixed berries fresh or frozen (could use chopped apple, papaya or pear too)
Instructions
- Combine oats, chia, flax & sunflower seeds and protein powder in a bowl.
- Add enough cold water to cover ingredients and mix well. Stir through yogurt and if you have time, let mixture rest and soak through for at least 20 mins – a great one to prepare the nighty before!
- Add more water/milk if consistency too thick for your liking.
- Add berries (or other low GI fruit) on top to serve. Enjoy!
