Ok, so brownies are probably one of my all-time favorite desserts. They are right up there with bread pudding, which is hard to beat. Maybe I should make a brownie bread pudding some time? Sorry, I’m getting sidetracked. Back to brownies… I wanted brownies, but they aren’t exactly the best idea for breakfast, so I compromised and made this Brownie Batter Protein Oatmeal, which isn’t actually compromising much because it tastes that good!

For this recipe, it involves lots of chocolate flavor. In my opinion, you can never have too much chocolate flavor. The oats are flavored with Xtend Pro chocolate lava cake protein powder. I also added a little bit of extra cacao powder for that added rich chocolatey flavor, and of course antioxidants!

On top I added some chopped up Square Organics chocolate coated crunch protein bar. If you are interested in some Square bars, you can use my code “MACRO_CHEF” at their site for $5 off your order.

After the chocolate protein bar chunks, I added one more dimension of chocolate goodness to cap off this brownie batter protein oatmeal recipe. with my favorite dark chocolate chips. I go through almost a bag of these a week!

Next time I make this oatmeal, I may have to make my favorite protein brownie recipe and put some of them on top!
