Berry Cobbler Overnight Oats

Holy Yum! I tweeked my base oat recipe for this, the last set just wasn't very sweet. So these have a nice cinnamon flavor topped with fresh berries, oh yes. 

Ingredients: 
~1/3 c. Old fashion oats 
~1/2 scoop cinnamon swirl Slap Protein Powder 
~4 oz (1 small cup from a 6 pack) cinnamon applesauce 
~Sprinkle of cinnamon 

Directions: 
~mix, cover, pop in fridge over night. 
In the morning: microwave 1 min and top with: 
~1/4 c blueberries 
~1/4 c strawberries (I sliced them) 
~1/4 c blackberries and/ or raspberries 
EAT. 


The applesauce gives you a little more sweetness without actually dumping in sugar. This is also great for anyone who's cutting back on dairy or lactose intolerant.

This is a filling breakfast with lots of natural sugar and fiber, to wake you up and keep you full. 
Enjoy :)

Apple Pie Overnight Oats

So this recipe is 100% created by me. I had overnight oats, and immediately started coming up with other yummy ideas. Instead of hitting Pinterest, I used my culinary skills to create my own! 

These were pretty good, a little bland BUT I didn't add any table sugar like most recipes call for. I get enough processed sugar in my diet. These also kept me full for quite a while and I wasn't tempted to keep eating sweets all day like I usually crave & cave! 


Ingredients: 
2/3 c. Old fashioned oats 
1/2 Apple, diced into small to medium chunks 
2/3 c. Coconut milk 
1/2 scoop SLAP cinnamon swirl whey protein powder 
1 tbsp. plain Greek yogurt 

Directions: mix in mug. Cover. Put in fridge. Eat upon waking up. I like to pop them in the microwave for a minute. Sprinkle with cinnamon and/ or drizzle with honey. 

Macros: 
440 cal, 9 g Fat, 70 g Carbs, 25.5 g Pro 
Added nutritional bonus: 10 g Fiber, high in potassium, low in sugar, good source of necessary vitamins and minerals. 

Side note, I could have probably halved this recipe, but then I also might not have been as full for as long. The oats soak up that moisture though and puff up so just keep that in mind. 



Easy & quick breakfast that'll fuel you through your morning! Try it!

Peanut butter Protein Pancakes

Ok-- let me just toot my own horn here. Tooooot! These were delicious. So I have to share! I know you can make protein pancakes with just water and protein mix but I like a little fluff in there. So I use Kodiak Pancake Mix. 

Ingredients: 
1/2 c. Kodiak Pancake Mix (I have whole grain) 
1 scoop Slap Peanut Butter Protein Powder 
1/2 c. almond milk 

Directions: 
Mix ingredients. Stir. Pour into hot pan or griddle. Flip. Devour. 

Servings: 
2, so I spilled half the bowl because Monday Morning Fail. But you can either half this recipe, share, refrigerate, or simply eat them all and I won't judge you. 
This recipe makes 2 large, or 2-6 small/ medium cakes. 

Macros: (per ENTIRE batch-- so if you share, half this!)

Best part? They can be topped with Nutella, fruit, more peanut butter, pb crave, syrup, nuts, the opportunities are endless! And it starts your day right! Enjoy with coffee or milk to really power through your day. 

Don't like peanut butter? Lucky for you, Slap whey isolate comes in other flavors you can try too. Think vanilla with cinnamon, cinnamon swirl, chocolate, or strawberry pancakes topped with fresh berry compote and creme? Is your mouth watering yet? Go eat some breakfast! 

I prefer Slap protein because they don't use fillers or artificial flavoring, so no funky protein after taste. Check out WeSlap.com for all their products and use LTIPFIT for 10% off your order. Who has every flavor and product? This girl. Who should stock up? You! Because the protein powder recipes are going to start flooding in!

Need more protein? Use a full scoop! 

Could it get any easier? NO. So do it. This is a great post workout snack, or dessert, or breakfast for that matter. And you can switch it up easily- different protein powder flavors give you options! I used chocolate today for peanut butter and choclatey goodness- one of my favorite flavor combos! Mix up a bowl today!! Eat healthy and fuel that body!
