By 180 NutritionThis high protein breakfast porridge makes a great start to the day now that winter has set in. Prepared in under 10 minutes, this high protein breakfast recipe will beat a slice of toast hands down and is great for the kids too!
Ingredients (makes 2-4 serves)
- Pinch of sea salt
- 2 cups of your choice of oats
- 1/2 cup of 180 Natural Protein Superfood
- 1 ripe banana (chopped)
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup chopped pecan nuts
Preparation
First up grab a large saucepan.
Bring 3 & 3/4 cups of water to the boil then add a good pinch of sea salt. Stir in your oats, 180 protein powder and half of your banana. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 3 mins.
When all the water has been absorbed, remove from the heat and stir in the remaining banana and cinnamon.
Serve in a breakfast bowl, sprinkle with your chopped pecans and dust with cinnamon to finish, & viola! A delicious high protein breakfast. Enjoy…

Good one- to make it gluten free you could substitute the oats for quinoa flakes and/or rice flakes.

Looks good! How many people is this recipe of 2 cups oats meant to serve?

Good question! I’d say serves 2 – 4 people depending on how much they eat.

I’d add natural honey (manuka) and some Jalna vanilla yoghurt. Maybe some milk too.
I know it’s not full paleo but for those who have dairy, it’s delicious.
I like Golden Syrup instead of honey (I own 10 acres and do a lot of work, and cycle a lot, so burn these calories off).

I have started dipping my toe into Paleo eating but one of the things I really missed was morning porridge. Loved the idea of this recipe but interested your thoughts on whether it would undo all the benefits of Paleo? I’m hoping there’s a place for it :)

Hi Pamela…. Peronaly I don’t eat many grains, but I will have oats occasionally. The ones I will eat are Groats Oats. They are unprocessed but they take ages to cook, or you have to soak them over night first otherwise you’ll be chewing them like a horse! Hope that helps…Guy
