Microwave Chocolate Protein Oatmeal

Print Recipe

Microwave Chocolate Protein Oatmeal is an easy breakfast to make that will actually keep you full all morning long, thanks to my 3-step method to make oatmeal more filling. I’m jazzing up your bowl with a secret ingredient: collagen!

Gluten Free, Nut Free, Dairy Free, Soy Free

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/3 cup rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 scoop New Chapter Collagen
  • 1 cup + liquid (water or milk/non-dairy milk)
  • Toppings: fruit, yogurt, nut/seed butter, seeds, nuts

Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl combine oats, chia seeds, cinnamon, cocoa powder, collagen, and 1 cup liquid. Mix together and let sit for 2 minutes so the chia seeds and oats can absorb some liquid.
  2. Microwave for 1 minute, 30 seconds. Most of the remaining liquid will be absorbed.
  3. Remove from microwave and mix in an additional one-quarter cup liquid. Microwave for another 1 minute, 30 seconds. If all of the liquid is not absorbed, microwave for another 30 seconds.
  4. Carefully remove from the microwave and mix in a final one-quarter cup liquid. Microwave for another 1 minute, 30 seconds. All liquid should be absorbed. If you prefer soupy oats, you can add some additional liquid before allowing to cool and enjoying.
  5. Top bowl with desired toppings (fruit, nut/seed butter, yogurt, chocolate chips, nuts/seeds). ENJOY!
