Oats that packs a protein punch and a crunch! This recipe has become a staple during these chilly days! Not only is it warm and cozy, it is also packed with a ton of hormone balancing nutrients. This SPOATS recipe promises a comforting and nutritious start to your day. Packed with fiber, healthy fats, and protein, this breakfast bowl is not just a treat for your taste buds but also a boost for your overall well-being.

Incorporating seeds into your oatmeal increases the overall fiber content helping with blood sugar regulation and these seeds provide essential nutrients that promote heart heath, support digestion and offer a good source of plant-based proteins and healthy fats. Plus they add in a nice crunch!

Ingredients:

Let’s dive into the heart of our SPOATS creation:

• 1/3 cup of oats (opt for glyphosate free oats)
• 1 scoop protein powder (Ritual protein is a go-to)
• 1/2-1 scoop of collagen powder (optional, Truvani is a current favorite)
• 1 cup water or milk (we love the combination of half malk almond milk and half water)
• 1 tsp of each type of seeds (flax seeds, pepitas, chia seeds, hemp hearts)
• Cinnamon (optional)
• Toppings: Get creative with your favorites! Our go-tos include blackberries, banana slices, and a generous drizzle of almond butter.

Details:

1. Begin by adding the oats into a bowl.
2. Mix in the protein and collagen powder.
3. Pour 1 cup of your chosen liquid into the bowl.
4. Stir everything together, and if you fancy, sprinkle some cinnamon for that extra touch.
5. Cook your oatmeal on the stovetop, bringing it to a boil. Alternatively, opt for the microwave for a quick ~1.5 minutes.
6. Once done, take it out and let the creativity flow as you top it with your preferred fruits, nut butter, granola, hemp seeds, or anything that suits your mood that day.
