Protein /Whey Powder

I normally use Spiru-tein Simply Natural powder, and I really like it. Especially since it's unsweetened and i can add stevia to taste. However, I cannot add it to say, oatmeal or cereal because it tends to have a goopy consistency. Anyone have any recommendations for a good unsweetened whey powder that isn't goopy and doesn't taste like powdered cardboard?

Protein/whey powder is hard when it comes to adding it to heat cause like you said it tends to get goopy.
With oatmeal could you have a small glass of a protein shake? or sprinkle a bit on top of your oatmeal or make a protein pancake? If I add it to my oatmeal I will usually add some fruit to mask the goopyness of the powder, or I make a protein oatmeal pancake.
Have you thought of looking into hemp seeds to add to oatmeal or yogurt?0 -
@ Sugarbeans, do you have a recipe for your protien oatmeal pancakes? That sounds delicous!0

Protein Pancake:
Whisk together
3/4 cup egg whites,
28 grams of plain oatmeal,
8g of whey protein powder
1/8 cup water,
¼ tsp vanilla extract, cinnamon, let sit for about 5 mins. Fry in pam-sprayed frying pan like a pancake. Cut into wedges & enjoy!
I will sometimes use 1/3 of a cup of rogers 7 grain oatmeal and I will either put peanut butter on top or have syrup.0 -

I tried this recipe last week and liked it, but it was hard to measure out with the 28 g of oatmeal and 8 g of protein powder. I made it again today with 1/2 scoop of protein powder (18.5 g) and 1/2 cup oatmeal. It comes to 304 calories with tons of protein for a high carb day. I LOVE IT and it's portable! I dipped it in 1/8 c sugar-free syrup.
