These apple cinnamon oats taste like apple pie in a bowl. Cottage cheese melts right into the hot oats, adding creaminess and a protein boost with no noticeable dairy flavor. Ten minutes on the stove and breakfast is done: 366 calories and 14g of protein a bowl, with 10g of fiber to keep it steady. It is one of the 100 recipes in The Super Simple GLP-1 Diet Cookbook for Women, and the nutrition numbers come from USDA FoodData Central.
Make it ahead if mornings are rushed: the oats reheat with a splash of almond milk, and the cottage cheese keeps them creamy instead of gluey. Swap the banana for berries if you want fewer carbs, and go easy on the cinnamon topping if your stomach is having a sensitive week.
