High Protein Oatmeal without Protein Powder with Chia

High Protein Oatmeal is a great breakfast recipe. This steel cut oatmeal is high in protein and low in calories. No protein powder. Most importantly it tastes really good. Chia seeds and flaxmeal add protein, extra fiber to this oatmeal and create more volume (looks like you have more food). Egg whites are another great option to add protein and volume – they make this oatmeal creamy. I like to add peanut butter powder to add extra protein and since the powder is less caloric than regular peanut butter – it is truly a win win for this recipe.
This oatmeal is gluten free (if you buy the gluten free kind: https://amzn.to/3eihL86) and can be diary free if you leave out the yogurt or substitute with coconut yogurt.

Ingredients - Oatmeal
- 64 oz of water and more for adding throughout cooking
- 1 cup steel cut oats (gluten free is a good option as well)
- 1 tbs chia seeds
- 3 tbs flaxmeal
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 184 grams of liquid egg whites

TIPS
- make sure banana you are using is very ripe so your oatmeal is sweet.
- this is a long process (about one hour and a half). You can make it ahead of time, portion it and leave it in a fridge for at least a week. I reheat it by adding small amount of water to a pan, add portion of oatmeal and cover)
- You can also make it in slow cooker (buy it here: https://amzn.to/2TzwGTv ) or Instant Pot (buy it here: https://amzn.to/2Zyu6RN)
- the way I cook the oats makes them expand more adding more volume to it so one cup of oats goes a long way and creates 4 large portions. If you cook it less your portion sizes will be smaller.
