Curb those pie cravings at breakfast with this delicious Coconut Cream Pie Protein Oatmeal recipe! These healthy oats are packed coconut flavor, are a great alternative to the real thing, and have awesome macros.
The first thing you need to do for this one is to make your protein oatmeal. To do this quickly you’re going to need a bowl and a microwave. You could also optionally make this on the stove but it’ll take a bit longer.
Add right into your bowl 1/2 cup of rolled oats, 1/2 cup of sugar free coconut milk or other unsweetened milk substitute, and 1/4 cup of water.
Microwave your oatmeal for around 2 minutes depending on how powerful your microwave is.
The most important part of this recipe is to make sure you add in the rest of your ingredients immediately after the microwave. You want your oatmeal hot so that everything for your coconut cream pie protein oatmeal mixes in easily!
Continue by adding in 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 scoop of a vanilla protein powder, and 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil.
Mix all of those ingredients together until well incorporated.
Last, lightly mix in 1/2 container of a coconut Greek yogurt and 3 tablespoons of unsweetened shredded coconut.
Optionally top it with some chopped up nuts, banana slices, whipped cream or topping, and so on! Let us know what you top your coconut cream pie protein oatmeal with in the comments below.
