High Protein Scottish Porridge Oats is a slight adaptation of Sam Heughan\u2019s (Jamie Fraser) of Outlander on Starz.<\/p>\n
High Protein Scottish Porridge Oats is my recipe of the day with the blogging group Sunday Funday. We post weekly on varying topics. This week we\u2019re featuring oatmeal recipes for National Oatmeal Month. Glad you could join us!<\/p>\n This recipe is inspired by actor Sam Heughan, who plays the character Jamie Fraser on the show Outlander. (For those not familiar, the show is set primarily in Scotland in the mid 1700\u2019s, but also involves a time travel element between that time and the mid-to-late 1900\u2019s, as well as travels to other countries of the period. It\u2019s an adventure-romance with quite the devoted following.)<\/p>\n Mr Heughan likes to cook, and this is based on his favorite way to prepare porridge. He likes to add protein (in the form of protein powder and peanut butter), as well as fruit, for a healthful and hearty start to his day. The protein helps him maintain his strict diet and physique when filming the show, and the porridge fuels him up for a long day of acting and exertion.<\/p>\n He also enjoys his Scottish whisky and has his own brand of blended whisky, Sassenach (a term of endearment for his love interest in the show, meaning lowlander, foreigner, or, most appropriately in this case, \u201coutlander\u201d). In fact, I enjoyed watching Sam dunk his little Scottie dog shortbread cookies in the whisky on an episode of his humorous travel series with Outlander costar Graham McTavish, Men in Kilts.<\/p>\n All that said, this is indeed a solid start to the day, providing more sustenance than the typical bowl of oatmeal we usually serve here in the States. We certainly enjoyed it. I do recommend using Scottish (or Irish) porridge oats if you can get them \u2013 they make for a creamy texture and are very tasty. And the optional Lyle\u2019s golden syrup is simply divine!<\/p>\n Sizzling Tastebuds: Almond meal Muffins with Oats and Honey<\/a> Chunky Oatmeal Date Cookies are full of good old-fashioned flavor with both dates and oatmeal in this easy drop cookie.<\/p>\n Chai Tea Overnight Oats combines oats with milk, yogurt and spiced chai tea in this delicately spiced breakfast favorite.<\/p>\n Applesauce Oatmeal Cookies are moist old-fashioned spice cookies with applesauce, oats, raisins, apple bits, and walnuts.<\/p>\n Blueberry Oat Flour Muffins are delicious and healthy with the addition of whole grain oat flour, old-fashioned oats and juicy fresh blueberries.<\/p>\n Strawberry Oatmeal Cookies have old-fashioned flavor and over the top bursts of berry goodness in every bite for an unforgettable Spring treat.<\/p>\n Click stars in the recipe card and comment to rate.<\/em><\/p>\n![\"High](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/palatablepastime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/High-Protein-Scottish-Porridge-Oats-og.jpg?ssl=1\")
