Ingredients:

1/2 cup rolled oats (or more for thicker oats)

1 scoop protein powder (vanilla works best. here are my plant protein powder recommendations)

1 cup water

1/2 cup light or full fat coconut milk (plus extra for topping)

1 tsp vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

1 tbsp maple syrup

1/2 mango, sliced

White and black sesame seeds for garnishing

Instructions:

Prepare the liquid base: In a small saucepan, combine the water, coconut milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Mix dry ingredients: While waiting for the liquid to simmer, whisk together the rolled oats and protein powder in a small bowl until well combined.

Cook the oats: Once the liquid is simmering, add the oat-protein mixture to the saucepan. Stir immediately to prevent clumping. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the oats begin to soften and the mixture starts to thicken.

Finish cooking: Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats reach your desired consistency and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add a pinch of salt and more coconut milk or water if desired.

Let cool slightly: Transfer the oat mixture to a serving bowl and allow it to cool slightly for about 2 minutes. This helps the oats set up to the perfect sticky consistency.

Add toppings: Arrange the sliced mango on top of the oats in an attractive pattern. Drizzle with additional coconut milk.

Garnish and serve: Sprinkle generously with white and black sesame seeds. Serve immediately while still warm.
