  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the protein powder with the remaining 2 tablespoons of water until it's smooth.
  • Stir in the rolled oats, chia seeds, and brown sugar into the simmering liquid. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring now and then, until the oats are tender and the liquid is mostly absorbed.

  • Take the saucepan off the heat. Mix in the protein blend and banana slices, cover, and let it sit for 2-3 minutes. Serve the oatmeal in bowls, maybe with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top for extra flavor.
