What is Proats?
Proats are a healthy and quick breakfast that keeps you full for a long time. The word "Proats" is made up of "protein" and "oats". So protein and oatmeal, if you look at it very sober. The combination of protein and fiber guarantees you a good start to the day. The breakfast recipe satiates for a long time and provides your body with a lot of nutrients and energy.
This has the advantage that you are protected from cravings.
In principle, the Protein Oatmeal is similar to Overnight Oats. Here, too, the refrigerator does the work for your healthy breakfast.
If you're not a fan of elaborate cooking and preparation in the morning, you'll love Proat's recipes. The new breakfast trend is prepared the day before and only refined after getting up.

It tastes just as delicious with frozen berries. You can defrost them overnight in the refrigerator. Or heat them up in the microwave and turn them into a berry puree with a little honey.

What can I refine Proats with?
What would be a fitness snack without Spices? It only becomes really tasty with ingredients like Cinnamon*vanilla extract, Cardamom*, cocoa. Yummy. You can actually use any spice you like. Just give it a try.
Who likes it a little sweet has, which can also be at the Proats recipe help. Either with honey, Agave syrup* or the next day with sweet fruit. Also allowed are Erythritol* (0 calories) or Birch sugar*.
That brings us to the keyword: Fruit. Fresh fruit really brings a lot of flavor and vitamins. What tastes good is allowed. No matter whether fruit puree like applesauce, fresh or frozen fruits.
You can also prepare the fruit the day before. Simply cut it into small pieces and pack it in Tupperware boxes. That's it. Then you really have no more work in the morning.
How much protein does Protein Oatmeal contain?
Curd is a true protein miracle. The creamy milk product has 12 grams of protein per 100 grams and has long been known among athletes as a muscle building food.
Since the taste is quite neutral, quark can be perfectly combined - no matter whether fruity or chocolaty. Low-fat quark is the perfect base for the fitness snack, but you can also use classic quark. Quark can be replaced by Skyr or Greek yogurt. All of them are bursting with protein.
Provide even more protein in the proats Oatmeal. The small flakes have around 15 grams of protein per 100 grams. They keep us full for a particularly long time and prevent blood sugar levels from rising quickly. Perfect for a quick start to the day.
If any food formerly labeled boring has made it among the trendsetters, it's oatmeal.
As children, we usually gave the flakes a wide berth. We were given them as porridge when we were sick. The fact that the little flakes have undergone a huge image change is shown not only by porridge and the like, but above all by completely new breakfast trends such as Proats recipes.
What is the difference between Proats, Overnight Oats and Porridge?
The biggest difference is the huge portion of protein. But not in the form of protein powder or artificial additives. No. The biggest source of protein for Proats is curd cheese.
Porridge has its origin in Great Britain. For this you mix oatmeal with milk and boil it. Water can also serve as a base.
With Overnights Oats, you use the same ingredients, but you don't have to cook the porridge - as the name suggests, the oats stay in the fridge overnight and soak up the liquid.
Proats work in a similar way. Here, additional protein-rich ingredients such as low-fat quark and milk come into play.
Proats recipes for breakfast as a snack or after a workout
Everything looks delicious. But when is the best time to prepare and eat a Proats recipe? First of all, this much: This healthy fitness snack can be produced super in stock.
It is important that you always store the base in the refrigerator and put a lid on the jar.
You can pack them in a screw-top jar or tupperware and take them to work. Proats just always go. They are a delicious snack at work.
Or you eat the fitness snack with curd cheese before the workout. Here, however, should be at least an hour in between.
Better still 1.5 hours. Otherwise, the oatmeal may be heavy in the stomach. With enough digestion time, you can get the most power from the snack.
Or you can enjoy Proats as a protein-rich after-workout snack. After a workout, our body needs power and lots of energy. You can give it that with this delicious snack.
This is what you should eat before your workout!
Our conclusion
I love every single Proats recipe. It may not look stunningly delicious right off the bat. But it doesn't do anything to the taste. Protein Oatmeals are my new favorite fitness food.
On the one hand, because they contain great ingredients and on the other hand, of course, but also because they are prepared so quickly. I can turn around in the morning without a guilty conscience in the warm bed.
Good luck, have fun making it and enjoy!
