Are you after an easy snack recipe? This recipe could work equally well for breakfast too.

I used my favourite Vanilla Ice Cream Optimum Standard Whey Protein and because of the sweetness of the powder, you can easily reduce the amount of honey you need to use.

Honey, oats, chia and coconut oil are staples in my pantry. There are so many glorious food combinations you can use with these key ingredients.

Oats are a fantastic source of soluble and insoluble fibre. This is why it is source a power house when eaten at breakfast. A 1/3-cup serving of uncooked oats contains 2.7 total grams of dietary fiber; of this amount, 1.3 grams are insoluble fiber and 1.4 grams are soluble fiber. Insoluable fibre is not broken down by the body therefore not adding to the overall calorie value of the meal. Fibre plays an important role in lowering blood cholesterol, adding bulk to the still, making a meal feel more feeling and keeping your inside healthy. Oats can also be used a substitute as flour in many recipes, like muffins and pancakes.
