High-Protein Chocolate Oats? Say Less!

If you are trying to smash your fitness goals, build lean muscle, or simply stay full until lunch, you already know that breakfast is the ultimate battleground. And for most of us, oatmeal is the undisputed MVP of the morning routine. It’s comforting, it’s packed with complex carbohydrates, and it’s incredibly reliable.

But let’s be honest: standard oats have a massive flaw. They are notoriously low in protein.

To fix this, the fitness community came up with "proats" - stirring a scoop of dry protein powder into a bowl of warm oatmeal. It works on paper, but in reality? It often results in a chalky, clumpy, uninspiring bowl of mush that dries out faster than you can find a clean spoon.

We knew there had to be a better way to get your chocolate fix and your morning protein hit without sacrificing texture or flavour.

Enter the ultimate morning fuel hack: Using our 99th Monkey Chocolate Protein Smoothie carton as the liquid base for your instant chocolate oats.

It is smooth, it is deeply chocolatey, and it is the single easiest way to unlock the ultimate macro-friendly breakfast. Say less!

The Magic of Swapping Milk for a Protein Smoothie

When making traditional oatmeal or overnight oats, you usually reach for water, dairy milk, or an almond milk alternative. While those are fine for hydration, they aren't doing any heavy lifting for your macros.

By completely swapping out your standard liquid base for a chilled carton of 99th Monkey Chocolate Protein Smoothie, you instantly change the entire nutritional game.

You aren't just adding protein at the end as an afterthought; you are cooking or soaking your oats directly in an elite, macro-friendly, high-protein liquid. Because our smoothie is already perfectly blended, rich, and completely dairy-free, it infuses every single oat grain with a deep, velvety cocoa flavour.

The result? An incredibly creamy, indulgent bowl of chocolate oats that tastes like a decadent dessert but has the nutritional profile of a high-performance fitness meal. No dry powder clumps. No chalky textures. Just pure, smooth perfection.

The Ultimate Macro-Friendly Breakdown

Why are we so obsessed with this breakfast hack? It all comes down to the numbers.

When you combine complex-carb-heavy rolled oats with a 99th Monkey Chocolate Protein Smoothie carton, you are creating a super-meal built for sustained energy.

• 20g of Clean Protein (Before you even add toppings): Our smoothie base instantly injects 20 grams of premium, plant-based protein into your bowl, giving your muscles exactly what they need to recover first thing in the morning.

• Ultra-Low Calories & Next to No Sugar: Unlike sugary commercial chocolate milks or heavy cafe syrups, our smoothie keeps the macros strictly elite. It features less than 1g of sugar and only 112 calories for the drink base, allowing you to scale your breakfast up or down depending on your specific goals.

• Zero Dairy, Zero Bloat: Many whey-based protein shakes leave you feeling heavy, gassy, or bloated before your workday even starts. Our dairy-free smoothie base is incredibly gentle on the stomach, meaning you get all the gains with absolutely none of the bloat.

How to Make It: Two Ways to Fuel

Whether you love a warm, cozy bowl of instant morning oats or you prefer a grab-and-go chilled breakfast, this hack works perfectly for both.

Option 1: The 2-Minute Warm Chocolate Bowl

1. Add 1 cup of quick oats or rolled oats to a microwave-safe bowl.

2. Pour over your 99th Monkey Chocolate Protein Smoothie until the oats are completely submerged (roughly 200ml depending on how thick you like them).

3. Microwave on high for 90 seconds to 2 minutes, stirring halfway through.

4. Watch it turn into a thick, volcanic, steaming bowl of chocolate fudge pudding.

Option 2: The Ultimate Grab-and-Go Overnight Proats

1. In a jar or container, combine 1 cup of rolled oats and 1 tablespoon of chia seeds.

2. Pour a full carton of your 99th Monkey Chocolate Protein Smoothie over the top and stir thoroughly.

3. Pop the lid on and let it rest in the fridge overnight.

4. In the morning, grab your spoon and dive straight into a thick, chilled chocolate mousse-style breakfast.

Pro-Tip: If you want to take things to the absolute next level, top your finished bowl with a fresh handful of raspberries and a generous dollop of our 99th Monkey Smooth or Crunchy Almond Butter.

Say Goodbye to the Mid-Morning Slump

Eating a high-carb, low-protein breakfast is a one-way ticket to a 10:30 AM energy crash. When your blood sugar spikes from quick carbohydrates and plummets shortly after, you find yourself fighting off brain fog and reaching for a sugary office snack.

By locking in your morning macros with this chocolate protein oat hack, you are choosing a completely different kind of day. The combination of slow-digesting dietary fibre from the oats and the high-quality protein from our smoothie creates a slow, steady release of energy. You’ll feel sharp, fuelled, and genuinely full for hours on end.
