  • For a while I was eating only oats for breakfast, but then I stopped on my nutritionist's advice in favour of a breakfast with more protein. When this product came out I absolutely wanted to…

How to enjoy them

We designed this mix to fit your routine, whatever your favourite method.

Hot porridge

Combine 50g of mix with about 140ml of liquid. For the best taste and creaminess, we recommend cow's milk or your favourite plant-based drink (go for soy if you want to maximise the protein). You can also make it with water, but bear in mind you'll lose some of the rich flavour and velvety texture.

  • In the microwave: the quickest method. Heat for about 90-120 seconds (stirring halfway through) and you're good to go.
  • In a saucepan: just 2 minutes over a medium heat, stirring until it reaches the thickness you like.

The secret to creaminess: if you've got an extra minute, let the porridge rest after cooking. It's optional, but it lets the chia seeds and oats soak up more liquid, making the porridge even creamier.

Overnight Oats

If you don't even want to switch on the hob in the morning, mix 50g of mix and about 140ml of liquid in a jar the night before and leave it in the fridge. When you wake up, breakfast is already waiting: fresh and naturally velvety.

Protein Upgrade: for an extra protein boost and an even richer texture, stir in a spoonful of Greek yogurt (dairy or soy) at the end. The yogurt adds a pleasantly tangy note and an irresistibly creamy consistency.

Customise your bowl: extra notes and toppings

The mix already has a bold character and a pleasant crunch thanks to the chopped peanuts and the spicy touch of cinnamon. But if you fancy a different twist or a little extra sweetness, here are our favourite pairings:

  • For more sweetness: mash half a ripe banana into the porridge while it cooks; the heat brings out its natural sugars. Or top it with fresh blueberries for a juicy, refreshing note. You can also add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
  • For an indulgent touch: add a teaspoon of 100% peanut butter or a square of dark chocolate. As they melt into the hot porridge, they make every spoonful even richer and silkier.
  • For extra crunch: if you love bold textures and want the crunchy part to shine even more, sprinkle an extra handful of chopped peanuts on top before serving.
Why they're good for you
  • Protein contributes to a growth in and maintenance of muscle mass, as well as to the maintenance of normal bones
  • Oat grain fibre contributes to an increase in faecal bulk, supporting regularity and healthy bowel function
  • Consumption of beta-glucans (soluble fibre) from oats as part of a meal contributes to the reduction of the blood glucose rise after that meal, helping you avoid energy dips during the morning

These health benefits have all been approved by the EU only after a rigorous scientific assessment by EFSA (the European Food Safety Authority).

The Small Giants extra touch

Yeast protein: what's really inside

It's not an animal, and technically it's not a plant either: it's a microscopic fungus. As it ferments, it produces complete protein, rich in fibre and vitamins.

  • What does it taste like?

    On its own (grated topping, Crunchy Puffs) it has a naturally umami, cheesy taste. When only the protein is isolated, the flavour turns neutral: that's why it goes into pasta and taralli without changing their taste.

  • Is it the same yeast as in pizza?

    The very same, but don't worry: nobody rises like dough on the sofa. It's a microscopic fungus that, as it ferments, produces complete protein, rich in fibre and vitamins.

  • How do I use it?

    Sprinkle the grated topping on your pasta dishes instead of cheese, or munch on the Crunchy Puffs: at aperitivo time they're perfect for dipping in guacamole.

Quality counts too

Complete protein

Proteins are made of amino acids, the way a puzzle is made of pieces. Nine are essential: the body doesn't produce them, so they have to come from food. Some foods contain only a few of them; our protein sources contain them all.

As it ferments, yeast produces complete protein, with all 9 essential amino acids and no ingredients of animal origin.

9/9essential amino acids

  • Histidine
  • Isoleucine
  • Leucine
  • Lysine
  • Methionine
  • Phenylalanine
  • Threonine
  • Tryptophan
  • Valine

This refers to the protein source used in the product.
