Foods to pair with oatmeal?

Does anyone have recommendations on foods that I can pair with oatmeal, specifically gooey fats or soft protien?

My issue is my gut needs soft textures because the lining is inflamed, but foods like oatmeal are all carbs and give me issues eating alone due to the blood sugar spike.

I mainly eat ground chicken for my protien and olive oil for fats (a lot of veggies/some fruit otherwise) and don’t necessarily want to eat those foods with oats since they don’t “match”.

I tried homemade macadamia nut butter but that still gave me some issues, although I could tell it buffered the carb hit well. Olive oil doesn’t give me the same effect as nut butter since it doesn’t make the oatmeal thick enough?

Maybe I should try quail eggs? I think im sensitive to nuts and seeds sadly.
