Protein oatmeal
Looking for a warm, comforting breakfast that helps you fuel your training and recover well? These Protein Apple Oats are a go-to option for runners and active individuals who want a delicious, balanced breakfast without overcomplicating nutrition.
Made with oats, apple, berries, flaxseed and Momentous 100% Plant Protein, this recipe combines carbohydrates to support training with protein to support muscle repair and recovery, plus fibre and healthy fats.
Why athletes will love this recipe
- Carbohydrates to fuel performance: Oats and fruit provide carbohydrates to support training demands and replenish glycogen stores.
- Protein to support recovery: Adequate protein provides the amino acids needed for muscle repair and adaptation. Momentous Plant Protein makes it easy to add protein to a sweet, plant-based breakfast.
- Fibre and variety: Apple, berries, oats and flaxseed contribute fibre and a range of nutrients to support overall health.
- Convenient and adaptable: Prepare it before a busy training day, adjust the consistency to your preference, and vary your toppings to keep breakfast interesting.
Why Momentous Plant Protein?
I take a food-first approach to sports nutrition, but supplements can be useful when they help you meet your individual needs. I look for evidence-based formulations, high-quality sourcing and independent testing.
Momentous 100% Plant Protein provides 20 g of protein per serving from pea and brown rice protein, together supplying all nine essential amino acids. It is also NSF Certified for Sport, an important consideration for athletes looking for independently tested supplements.
