Tips from the chef
Use a high-quality vanilla protein powder for the best flavor.
Let the rolled oats soak in the almond milk for 5 minutes before blending for a smoother texture.
Cottage cheese adds creaminess and protein without overpowering the taste.
Adjust the thickness by adding more or less almond milk depending on your preference.
Add a pinch of nutmeg or a few drops of almond extract for a flavor twist.
If you prefer it sweeter, substitute maple syrup with honey or a low-calorie sweetener.
