High-Protein Maple & Seed Porridge

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup (36g) raw sunflower seeds

  • 1/2 cup (48g) rolled oats
  • 2 scoops of protein powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup

Directions

In a high-speed blender or clean coffee mill, place the sunflower seeds and flax, and grind coarsely. Transfer to a small pot. Add the oats, protein powder and cinnamon, and stir to mix, then stir in almond milk and 1 cup (240ml) water.
