Chef's Note
Oatmeal expands rapidly when microwaved! Always use a bowl much larger than you think you need to prevent a messy boil-over.

Ingredients
1 1/3 cups rolled oats
2 cups whole milk
3 tbsp heavy cream
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1.9 scoops vanilla protein powder
2 1/4 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- 1
In a large microwave-safe bowl (at least 1-quart capacity to prevent boil-over), combine 1 1/3 cups rolled oats, 2 cups whole milk, 3 tbsp heavy cream, and 1/2 cup pumpkin puree.
- 2
Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure the pumpkin puree is evenly distributed throughout the oats and liquid.
- 3
Microwave on high for 2 minutes, then carefully remove and stir the mixture.
- 4
Microwave on high for another 1 to 2 minutes, watching closely to ensure it does not bubble over, until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the liquid.
- 5
Carefully remove the hot bowl from the microwave.
- 6
Add 1.9 scoops vanilla protein powder, 2 1/4 tbsp maple syrup, and 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice directly to the hot oatmeal.
- 7
Stir vigorously until the protein powder is completely dissolved and the oatmeal is thick, creamy, and uniform.
- 8
Divide the oatmeal evenly between two serving bowls and enjoy warm.
