Step 1

Add oats and 1 cup almond milk (save 1/2 cup for later!) to a pot over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce to medium. Stir and cook until the oats have soaked up most of the almond milk, approximately 5 minutes.

Step 2

While the oats cook, add the protein powder, cocoa powder, honey and additional ½ cup almond milk into a shaker cup or a mason jar and shake until well combined.

Step 3

Add the protein milk to the oats and stir to combine. Return to a boil and cook until it reaches your desired thickness. It will continue to thicken as it sits.

Step 4

Top with your favorite toppings like sliced bananas, peanut butter swirl, cocoa nibs or fresh berries.
