Steel cut oats contain high levels of resistant starch (our gut bugs love this) and fibre.
Ingredients:
- ½ cup oats, soak overnight in 1 cup of water.
- Next morning add to saucepan with additional water if needed and cook through/
- I add 1T of nut butter, 1-2 T of protein or collagen powder, sprinkle of various seeds available normally, sunflower, pumpkin and chia. I use 2 dates to sweeten cut thinly.
- I top with high protein yoghurt or coconut yoghurt and sprinkle of cinnamon and seasonal fruit.
Prepare a batch for the week
Instead of each evening preparing this hearty breakfast, make enough for the week.
i.e. soak up to 3 cups of steel cut oats and 6 cups of water. I like to add my seeds, chopped nuts in to soak too. Next day, mix in your desired options – I Always add protein powder, mix seeds i.e. chia, pumpkin, sunflower, hemp seeds or hemp hearts. Place in fridge in air tight container, will last the week.
Each morning take out desired amount and heat through on saucepan.
Top with desired toppings.
