A warming, cold-weather breakfast with 35g protein. Slower to digest than standard oats, keeping hunger at bay for hours.
Combine oats, milk, cinnamon, and salt in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for 4–5 minutes until creamy and thick.
Remove from heat. Let sit 1 minute — the porridge continues to thicken off the heat.
Stir in protein powder quickly until fully dissolved. Work fast — the heat helps it incorporate without clumping.
Transfer to a bowl. Dollop peanut butter on top and drizzle with honey.
Top with banana or apple slices if desired. Serve immediately.
Stir protein powder in off the heat to prevent clumping. Unflavoured whey works best in savoury or neutral recipes.
