Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the 1/4 cup of multi-grain oatmeal and 1/2 cup of water.
- Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the oatmeal reaches your desired consistency. Alternatively, you can cook the oatmeal on the stovetop by bringing the water to a boil in a small saucepan, then stirring in the oats and reducing the heat to a simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the oats are tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- Once the oatmeal is cooked, add in the 1 scoop of whey protein powder and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon.
- Stir thoroughly to ensure everything is well combined, and the protein powder is fully dissolved and blended with the oats.
- Slice the 1/4 banana and add it to the bowl.
- Sprinkle the chopped 1/2 oz of walnuts over the top.
- Give the mixture one final stir to distribute the fruit and nuts evenly throughout the oats.
- Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your nutritious and delicious Cinnamon Walnut Protein Oats with Banana!
Tips:
- To save time in the morning, you can pre-measure and prepare the dry ingredients the night before.
- Use a ripe banana for added sweetness and natural flavor.
- If you prefer a different texture, you can cook the oatmeal with milk instead of water.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of cinnamon and walnuts to match your taste preference.
- Stir the protein powder thoroughly to ensure it dissolves completely and blends well with the oats.
