Hey there, art enthusiasts and health-conscious creators! Robert Kline here, your guide to all things art and craft. Today, we’re stepping out of the studio and into the kitchen for a delicious and nutritious recipe that will fuel your creative endeavors: High Protein Overnight Oats with Hemp Hearts.

As artists, we know the importance of starting the day right. A nourishing breakfast provides the energy and focus we need to tackle our artistic visions. These overnight oats are not only packed with protein and fiber but also incredibly easy to make. They’re perfect for busy mornings when you’d rather be sketching, sculpting, or painting than slaving over a hot stove.

  • Quick and Easy: With just a few minutes of prep the night before, you’ll have a grab-and-go breakfast ready to fuel your day.
  • Protein Powerhouse: Hemp hearts and soy milk combine to deliver a whopping 18 grams of plant-based protein, keeping you full and satisfied for hours.
  • Gut-Healthy Goodness: Oats and chia seeds are excellent sources of soluble fiber, promoting a healthy digestive system.
  • Nutrient-Dense: Packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, these overnight oats nourish your body from the inside out.
  • Customizable: Get creative and add your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.

Ingredients You’ll Need:

  • 1 cup unsweetened soy milk (or almond milk for a low-FODMAP option)
  • ⅓ cup rolled oats (gluten-free if needed)
  • 3 tablespoons hemp hearts (gluten-free if needed)

Let’s Get Started:

  1. Combine and Mix: In a mason jar or bowl, combine the oats, hemp hearts, peanut butter, chia seeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
  2. Refrigerate Overnight: Cover and place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  3. Add Toppings and Enjoy: When ready to serve, top with diced apple and additional sweetener if desired.

Tips and Substitutions:

  • Texture Control: For a thicker consistency, use less soy milk (⅔ cup or ¾ cup).
  • Freshness Tip: Add the diced apple just before serving to maintain its crispness. To prevent browning, toss the apple with a teaspoon of lemon juice.
  • Dietary Adjustments:
    • Gluten-Free: Use certified gluten-free oats and hemp hearts.
    • Nut-Free: Substitute sunflower seed butter or tahini for peanut butter.
    • Low-FODMAP: Use almond or macadamia milk instead of soy milk and choose a low-FODMAP fruit like strawberries.
