A wholesome and energizing oatmeal recipe featuring fresh peaches, rolled oats, and optional protein powder, designed to provide steady energy before workouts without feeling heavy.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats
  • 1 cup (240ml) water or milk (dairy or non-dairy like almond or oat milk)
  • 1 medium fresh ripe peach, sliced
  • 1 scoop (about 30g) vanilla protein powder (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • A pinch of salt
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Combine 1/2 cup rolled oats with 1 cup water or milk in a small saucepan.
  2. Add a pinch of salt and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon; stir to distribute evenly.
  3. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce heat to low.
  4. Simmer and stir occasionally for 5-7 minutes until oats are thick and creamy.
  5. Stir in 1 tablespoon chia seeds and 1 scoop protein powder near the end of cooking.
  6. Adjust consistency with more liquid if too thick; add 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup if desired.
  7. Remove from heat and let sit for 1-2 minutes to thicken.
  8. Slice the peach into thin wedges while oats cool.
  9. Pour oatmeal into a bowl and top with peach slices and a dollop of Greek yogurt if using.
  10. Optionally sprinkle extra cinnamon or chia seeds on top for added texture.

Notes

Use rolled oats for best texture; add protein powder near the end to avoid clumps; fresh peaches preferred over canned for better flavor and texture; can prepare the night before and reheat gently; adjust sweetness to taste; for vegan option, use plant-based milk and skip Greek yogurt or use coconut yogurt.
