Protein porridge

A warming bowl of porridge is the perfect Autumn Breakfast. Adding in a scoop of protein powder at the end of cooking ensures sufficient protein to keep you energised through the morning. I like to add a spoonful of nut butter for a creamy texture too.

Protein porridge

Overview

Serves 1

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 5-10 minutes

 

What’s Good About It?

Oats are rich in fibre and also higher in protein and fat than many other grains. Choose gluten free oats if needed. Any nut butter could be added to this porridge.

Did You Know?

Any flavour of protein powder can be used in this porridge. For a creamier texture use almond or coconut milk rather than water.

Ingredients

Serves 1

30g gluten free oats

200ml water

pinch of salt

1tsp nut butter

pinch of cinnamon, optional

1 scoop protein powder (chocolate or vanilla)

Instructions

 

  1. Place the water and oats with a pinch of salt in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and stir constantly. Once the porridge has thickened (about 3-4 minutes) stir in the nut butter and cinnamon if using and beat well.
  2. Take off the heat and beat in the protein powder.
  3. Spoon into bowls and top with a handful of berries to serve.
