I love a product on amazon called "Protein 4 Oats." It's a protein powder made specifically to add to oatmeal. Mixes well and comes in a variety of flavors like strawberry, apple cinnamond, vanilla, honey peanut butter. It adds 20g of protein to your oatmeal.0

Add quinoa to your oats. It adds great texture (IMO) and also has protein. Cooks at the same rate as steel cut oats/non 'quick cooking' oats'.
I also add chia seeds and hemp hearts to my oatmeal.
My go to oatmeal is:
1 tbl butter
I use water as the liquid
1/4 cup of steel cut oats
~1/8 cup of quinoa
Mushed up banana
cinnamon
Chia seeds - 1 tbl
Hemp hearts - 1tbl
Sometime I also add a spoonful of PB (or PB2 powder). Sometimes I'll add additional fruit like grapes. Protein powder that I've tried to add to my oatmeal has messed up my recipe (i.e. probably need to add more liquid).0 -
Available on amazon in other flavors too like apple cinnamon, vanilla almond, strawberry.

The easiest option would probably be using protein-enriched (dairy) milk unless you're allergic to casein. (Lactose-removed 2% protein-added milk is commonly available at most stores around here including generic brands).0
