Chocolate Peanut Butter Proats | The Ultimate Vegan Cheat Meal

When we think of the word “Cheat Meal” it’s commonly synonymous with Unhealthy.

But it ain’t gotta be…  bruh

If you can’t tell by now, I love peanut butter.

and chocolate.

a lot.

I have this cheat meal multiple times per week.

and by multiple, I mean every day.

If you’re a fan as well, give Chocolate Peanut Butter Proats try and it’ll redefine how you think about cheat meals.

and you’ll see why I call this

The Ultimate Vegan Cheat Meal

Aside from just being a cheat meal, for me, this is the perfect post-workout meal as well..

As it’s an easy way to get your protein in and a good time to indulge in your carbs.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup of old-fashioned oats.
  • 1 cup of unsweetened Almond milk (or Coconut, Oats milk, etc.)
  • 15g dairy free chocolate chips.
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons of good raw cocoa powder.
  • 1 scoop of chocolate plant-based protein.
  • 1 tbsp (30g) Peanut Butter (my preferred Brand Naturally More Extra Protein)
  • 1 banana (optional)
  • 1-2 teaspoons of maple syrup (optional)

STOVE TOP INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, bring milk to a boil, watching carefully so that it doesn’t boil over.
  2. Stir in protein powder while the oats are still kinda soupy, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and cover for a few minutes.
  3. Stir in cinnamon, vanilla, and peanut butter if desired. (I prefer peanut butter on top!)
  4. Pour oats into a bowl. Top with sliced bananas and additional cinnamon (if desired) before serving.

 

MICROWAVE INSTRUCTIONS 

  1. Pour the Almondmilk in the bowl of Oats, inside of a microwavable safe bowl.
  2. Microwave your oatmeal for around 1:00, take out while it’s still kinda soupy to stir in protein powder.. (or until desired consistency)
  3. While the oatmeal is still hot, add peanut butter if desired. (I prefer peanut butter on top!)
  4. Top with sliced bananas
  5. Mix everything together.
  6. Destroy…
