Oatmeal and Protein Powder

I feel like this is probably a stupid question but when you eat protein powder with oatmeal do you mix it in before cooking or just sprinkle it on top. - I am going to experiment to see what effect more protein at breakfast has on satiety

    Some sites say you shouldn't heat protein powder, others state is perfectly ok.
    I would sprinkle it after.

    I mix it in after or else the whole pot gets gluey and gross.

    I put my protein powder and berries in a bowl and then add the cooked oats on top and mix. No clumps with the whey powders I've tried (the vegan ones I've checked out seem not to mix as easily). The one time I tried cooking it with the powder (I do steel cut oats in a rice cooker), it didn't work out well.
