Protein Packed Fall Oatmeal Recipe | Yonder

Yogurt bowls and smoothies are my typical breakfast staples...after my chocolate collagen coffee of course! But the fall weather occasionally makes me want a warm breakfast, and organic oatmeal fits that bill nicely.I always encourage my clients not to eat “lonely carbs” since that can create a energy crashes and invite in food cravings. For this reason, when I do indulge in oatmeal, I add Yonder’s Flavorless Collagen to boost the protein of my bowl.

Adding a source of healthy fat too, like grass-fed butter or a little coconut oil, is also a great idea.To give traditional oatmeal a fall twist, I am adding cranberries and pumpkin seeds. It’s a fun seasonal variation of typical toppings like nuts and raisins, but you could certainly add those too! Cranberries are a great source of vitamin C and other antioxidants. Of course, dried cranberries typically have a bit of sugar on them, so I use them sparingly. You could top with real cranberries if you enjoy the tartness.I eat pumpkin seeds almost every day because they are a fabulous source of zinc, fiber and omega-3s. They give dishes like yogurt bowls and salads a delightful crunch, and they are a perfect addition to this fall oatmeal too!
