Notes

Use quick oats. The ratio of water to oats is important. If making more than one serving, check the instant oatmeal box for the ratio of water to oats.
Mash the banana with collagen peptides for the best results.
Different protein powders have different scoopers. I recommend adding enough powder to equal about 30 grams of protein per single serving.
Create different variations by adding different berries, almond butter, cocoa powder, dark chocolate chips, flaked coconut, flax seeds, etc.
Store this oatmeal in the fridge for up to two days. The bananas will cause the oatmeal to turn brown, but it still tastes the same in my opinion. If you want to batch-prepare this oatmeal for a one-minute breakfast, make the oats beforehand. Mash the banana and peptides just before eating.
Equipment: I'm a huge fan of a kitchen scale to measure and track macros. You will also need a saucepan, fork, and bowl.
