Introducing my latest, greatest and most favourite high protein breakfast recipe – carrot cake oats!
Carrot Cake Oats
You will need;
- 60gms oats
- 100gms egg white (this part is optional)
- 20gms vanilla protein powder
- 20ml sugar-free maple syrup
- 1/2 large carrot
- Spice mix, or Chai latte mix
- Cinnamon
- Himalayan salt!
The amount of these ingredients can be adjusted to suit your own macro targets, for example you can use 40gms oats, or 70gm. I make a massive bowl myself with 80gms where I can fit it into my macros.
Method;
- Cook up the oats in a saucepan, mixing constantly until smooth/cooked
- Add in 1/2 grated carrot and mix another 60-seconds or so. Lower the heat on the stove a little so they don’t overcook or stick to the bottom
- Add in 1tsp chai mix, some cinnamon, and salt
- Add 100gms egg whites, and continue to mix. You need to keep mixing as this cooks to prevent egg white ‘chunks’ from being formed
- Once the oats mixture is fluffy and thick, remove from the stove and place in a bowl
- Add 20gms vanilla protein to the oats and stir through
- Decorate with a little more spice mix on top, and add your sugar-free maple syrup
Voila!
When it comes to a high protein breakfast recipe, this is the best one out. I recommend eating with a small spoon so it lasts and lasts.
