Performance Benefits
The complex carbohydrates in the oats provide a sustained release of energy, promoting long-lasting fuel for physical activities. Whey protein is a complete protein source, containing essential amino acids crucial for muscle repair and growth. Adding it enhances the protein content, beneficial for those with increased protein needs. Also high in protein, the Greek yoghurt contributes to muscle repair and maintenance.
Health Benefits
Not only are oats a good source of slow-releasing complex carbohydrates, they are also a source of fibre, B vitamins and very low in sugar. Porridge oats are a great source of a type of fibre called Beta-glucans, which have been shown to lower LDL cholesterol levels. Apples provide natural sugars for a quick energy boost, along with dietary fibre that aids digestion. Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, and protein, chia seeds offer sustained energy, support cardiovascular health and aid in satiety.
Expert Tips
Top off your oats with whatever you would like. This recipe works best when left to chill overnight, but even a couple of hours in the fridge will suffice!
Equipment
- 1 Saucepan
- 1 Jar/Container
Ingredients
- 40 g Oats
- 100 ml Milk
- 2 tbsp Chia Seeds
- 2 tbsp Greek Yoghurt
- 1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein (optional)
- 1 Apple (stewed)
1 servings
Instructions
- Cut the apple into small chunks.
- Add to a saucepan with a small amount of water. The water level should be just enough to cover the bottom of the pan to prevent sticking.
- Place the saucepan on the stove over medium heat.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low.
- Let simmer for 5-10 minutes or until tender. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Once the apples are tender, remove the saucepan from the heat. They should be soft, but not mushy.
- In a container/jar, add ½ of the milk to the bottom, followed by the oats, chia seeds, whey & yoghurt.
- Add the rest of the milk on top & stir until fully combined.
- Top with the stewed apple & whatever else you would like (e.g. blueberries, peanut butter, honey, banana).
