Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use frozen blueberries?
Yes. Simply cook them for a few minutes until they release their juices.

Can I skip the cream cheese?
Yes. Replace it with an extra ¼ cup of blended cottage cheese for a lighter, high-protein version.

Can I add protein powder?
Yes. If you add one scoop of vanilla protein powder, reduce the milk slightly to maintain a creamy texture.

Can I make it dairy-free?
Yes. Use dairy-free Greek-style yogurt, dairy-free cream cheese, and a plant-based high-protein yogurt alternative, though the protein content will likely be lower.

Can I use quick oats?
Yes, but the texture will be softer than rolled oats.

Why is this so high in protein?
Most of the protein comes from the Greek yogurt (about 23g), cottage cheese (about 20g), and cream cheese/oats/chia, bringing the total to approximately 47g per serving.
