Spread evenly on the air fryer basket with a pan underneath.

Creamy Protein Oatmeal ****

Made it with 2 eggs, but I think it will be better with just one egg, so I'll try that next time. After making it, I found the recipe below, so I'll also try chia seeds if I make it again.  

1/2 cup rolled oats

1 cup water (or 1/2 cup water + 1/2 cup milk)

1 egg, beaten

Sea salt

Add oats and water to a saucepan, stir, and cook over medium heat until it reaches a boil.  Reduce heat and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.  Reduce heat to low and stir in the beaten egg.  Cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes.  Add sea salt to taste.
