toffee flavadrops from myprotein make oats delicioussssss
i just add coconut oil to my steel cut and they are perfect
Same here...using a bullet blender so I dont even powder it. Oats, chocolate protien powder, amd pb powder
IME the whole oats taste best, none of that 1 minute stuff.
Then with brown sugar or maple syrup taste best but sucralose works good for a lower cal substirute but if you use sucralose then it's bets to add some cocoa powder and salt or some cinnamon to cover the sucrolose flavor.
Other options are adding a bananna or cut up apple when cooking and salt and sweetener to you desired levels.
Another option is to go overnight oats where I find some sort of "milk," cinnamon and sweetener really hit the spot

By 1 minute do you mean instant? Just to be clear, "quick" oats are whole oats rolled thin, just to be clear.
Glad you mentioned salt. Salt, even just a tiny bit, makes the difference between good and inedible.

No 1 minute oats.
I hate those.
If they do not take at least 5 minutes to cook, buy another brand.
I chop up a Gala apple and stir it in, sometimes I cook it in, sometimes just put it in crispy and raw. Dump some cinnamon in it and stir it up and eat.
No sugar. No milk.
Geez, I swear sometimes folks are looking to want to know how to eat Lucky Charms and still do bodybuilding.

I skip both the instant oats and the quick oats.
When you get the regular whole oats the grain itself kind of plumps up and that doesn't seem to happen with even the quick oats.
The instant oats are, obviously, the worst of the bunch and remain flake like even when cooked although it does become soft and chewy.
While the quick oats are a big improvement over the instant oats they don't gain that plump grain quality that the regular oats do.
If quality is the priority then regular all the way.
The trade off for convenience in the quick oats does hit the sweet spot though as they are about 70%-80% as good as regular oats, so, I'm not hating on them at all.

-Oats, raw and unsoaked
-Teaspoon of cinnamon
-Small handful of raisins
-in order from greatest to least: sunflower seeds, walnuts, almonds, macadamia nuts, Brazil nuts
-soy milk
-any fruit I’ve got left over
I eat that after my first workout while playing World of Warcraft with my cock n asshole hooked up to a tens machine. Here’s a picture of it (my cereal, not my World of Warcraft or cock n asshole).

I just wanted to point out the quick oats aren't different nutritionally, they just cook faster.
I've tried them all. Thick cut, old fashioned, quick, steel cut, Scottish style, Irish style, all the brands, Bob's Red Mill, Silver Spoon...in the end plain old fashioned were the best combo of texture and convenience for me. I usually get Quaker but never noticed a difference between them and store brands.
Wild blueberries go right in while still frozen, melting instantly and lowering the oatmeal to eating temp quickly. A small amount of the darkest maple syrup I can get my hands on.
Sometimes a a dash of cinnamon or drop of bourbon vanilla if I feel like it.
I've never tried it with the frozen blueberries that sounds like a good idea.
I'm planning on getting a new blender soon and then just add oats either pre-ground or overnight oats style to a smoothie with some frozen fruit and home made 36 hour yogurt. Salt and sucralose to taste.

Just rolls in with an oats review lol.. Are you an AI?
If you're not, I'm always impressed with your additions to any conversation. Its the internet here, well thought out opinions aren't the norm.

- 125g oats
- 30g whey protein (my favorite is cinnamon flavor)
- 300g fat free greek yogurt
- 1 egg
- 1 apple (cut into small pieces)
Mix everything together and put it in an airfryer for 25-30min at 160C. So good.

What everybody is calling "regular" are "rolled oats." After cooking they retain texture. Instant are very thin and result in soft, mushy yuckiness. They come out very different when cooked.
I have not tried steel cut.

I may as well take the opportunity to emphasize a small life enhancer I think a lot do people miss. Get yourself some dark maple syrup from a small producer. Mount Mansfield, Ben's Sugar Shack, any place in New Hampshire or Vermont. They all sell online.
"Dark" syrup, long considered a less desirable grade vs light, is incredibly delicious, thicker and dense with minerals. It's usually made from the last batch of "dirty sap" drawn from the tree, and varies from year to year, and location to location so it's always interesting. You can "taste the land" in this stuff. "Terroir" as the French would say.
This also means a tiny bit adds a ton of flavor without extra calories, vs blander "light" or clear or amber syrups.
Give it a try if you like some "bite". It's little chunks of whole oats, something closer to grits in texture, but firmer and tastes like oats of course.
I enjoyed it but it's slow to prepare, I assume it takes longer to digest as well for longer lasting energy, with less of a glucose spike,
