Microwave Egg White Oatmeal (High Protein)
My microwave egg white oatmeal is the FASTEST high protein breakfast with no protein powder. It'll keep you full the whole morning!
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- ½ cup quick or minute oats
- ¾ cup milk of choice
- ¼ cup egg whites
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- In a medium microwave safe bowl, stir together oats, cinnamon, salt, milk and egg whites.
- Microwave for 45 seconds on high, stir and repeat 2-3 times (for a total of about 1 min 30 seconds to 2 minutes 15 seconds). The oats will be cooked when they are fluffy, and there is no excess moisture in the bowl.
- Carefully remove the bowl from the microwave, stir once more, add toppings and enjoy. Microwave for an additional 30 seconds if using toppings you would like to warm up.
Notes
Every microwave is different, to avoid the oats overflowing keep a careful eye on them after every time you put them back in the microwave.
