Scrambled oats are a warm, fluffy, and protein-packed twist on traditional oatmeal. Cooked like scrambled eggs, they create a soft, custardy texture that’s perfect for a quick and comforting breakfast. Easily customizable with sweet or savory flavors.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tsp butter or coconut oil (for cooking)
  • Optional toppings: fresh berries, nut butter, banana slices, chopped nuts, chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk the eggs. Add rolled oats, milk, cinnamon (if using), maple syrup or honey, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
  2. Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add butter or coconut oil.
  3. Pour the oat mixture into the pan and stir gently with a spatula, like scrambling eggs.
  4. Continue stirring and folding until the mixture thickens and forms soft curds, about 3–5 minutes.
  5. Once fluffy and cooked through, remove from heat.
  6. Top with desired toppings such as fruit, nut butter, or chocolate chips. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Add mashed banana before cooking for natural sweetness.
  • Stir in cocoa powder for a chocolate version.
  • Top with protein powder or Greek yogurt for extra protein.
  • Use egg whites instead of whole eggs for a lighter option.
  • Best enjoyed fresh, but can be reheated with a splash of milk.
