Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine rolled oats and water. Microwave the mixture on high for 1 minute or until the oats are tender and the water is absorbed.
- Remove the cooked oats from the microwave or stovetop and allow them to cool for 1-2 minutes. During this time, crack and separate your egg whites into a separate mixing bowl. Whisk the egg whites vigorously until creamy and slightly frothy.
- Gradually add your whisked egg whites into the slightly cooled oats, stirring continuously to prevent the egg whites from scrambling.
- Carefully mix in the canned pumpkin with your creamy oatmeal mixture. Stir until the pumpkin is evenly distributed.
- Return the bowl to the microwave for another 30 seconds to warm it through, or continue cooking on the stovetop for an additional minute, stirring regularly until heated to your liking.
- Once heated, transfer your Chocolate Pumpkin Egg White Oatmeal to a serving bowl. Top with whipped cream and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
