Notes
- To add even more protein - use Bob's Red Mills Protein Oats and swap almond milk for Fairlife milk. You could also use more protein powder.
- To make this dairy free - use plant based milk, yogurt, and protein powder.
- Experiment with mix-ins - use chia seeds or hemp seeds, try adding pumpkin seeds for some extra crunch. Swap in pumpkin pie spice, lemon zest, or a little honey for more sweetness.
- Switch up toppings - add sliced bananas, chocolate chips, diced apples, drizzle peanut butter or almond butter for variety!
