Our take

CleanPlate review

Oats and peanut butter with no added sugar

Alpino High Protein Super Oats Chocolate is rolled jumbo oats (51.6%), natural peanut butter (22%), textured soya and soya nuggets (15.2%), almonds, raisins and sunflower seeds (6%), cocoa powder (5%), monk fruit powder, stevia and rosemary extract.

CleanPlate scores it BA2. The B for nutrition reflects 25 g protein and 11 g fibre per 100 g. The A for ingredients reflects oats, peanut butter and cocoa with no oil, colours or flavouring; stevia keeps the sweetener score just short of full marks. The 2 for risk comes from energy density: peanut butter makes it 451 kcal per 100 g.

Common misconceptions

Myth: "Peanut butter oats are fattening"

The fat is mostly unsaturated from peanuts; keep to one scoop and it fits a normal breakfast.

Myth: "25 g protein means a protein shake in a bowl"

The 25 g is per 100 g; a 40 to 50 g serve gives 10 to 13 g, about a quarter of a day's need, before milk.

How often, and how

  • Healthy adultsDaily, one 40 g scoop
  • ChildrenFine; a smaller scoop
  • Diabetes or prediabetesA good choice: no added sugar

Smarter ways to eat it

Sweeten with fruit

Banana, berries or chopped apple on top add sweetness and fibre without more jaggery or sugar.

Cook it with milk

Simmer a scoop in milk for five minutes; the peanut butter melts into a thick porridge.
