Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 medium ripe banana halved
  • 1/3 cup quick oats check labels for gluten-free
  • 2/3 cup liquid Orgain's vanilla protein shake
  • 3 tablespoons egg whites
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure maple syrup
  • 5 grams chopped walnuts

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • Serving Bowl

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the quick oats and the liquid Orgain's vanilla protein shake. Stir well to mix the ingredients.
  2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Keep an eye on it to prevent it from boiling over.
  3. Once the mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and add the egg whites. Stir continuously to incorporate them evenly into the oats.
  4. Add the pure maple syrup to the mixture. Stir well, allowing the sweetness to blend seamlessly into the oats.
  5. Allow the oats to simmer on low for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until they reach your desired consistency.
  6. Once the oats are cooked, remove them from the heat and transfer to a serving bowl. Top with the halved banana and sprinkle the chopped walnuts on top for that perfect crunch.

Notes

  • For creamier oats, consider using a bit more liquid protein shake.
  • Feel free to experiment with different nuts or seeds for topping.
  • If you love a hint of spice, a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving can be a delightful addition.
