3. Instructions
5 StepsRinse the apple thoroughly. Core and dice into neat 1/4-inch cubes, leaving the nutrient-dense peel intact for color and texture.
In a small non-stick saucepan, combine the rolled oats, milk, cinnamon, and half of the diced apples. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Stir continuously for 4 to 5 minutes as the oats thicken and the apple pieces soften into sweet, tender morsels. Remove pan from heat and rest for 60 seconds.
Once the oats have cooled slightly from boiling, vigorously whisk in the vanilla protein powder and Greek yogurt until silky smooth without any curdling.
Transfer the hot oatmeal to a bowl. Crown with the reserved fresh diced apple, chopped toasted walnuts, and a dusting of extra cinnamon. Serve immediately.
