In a small saucepan, combine the oats, water, half the cinnamon, and the salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 to 5 minutes until creamy and the oats are soft but the mixture is still a bit loose.
Remove the pan from the heat and let it rest for 1 minute to cool slightly. Whisk in the protein powder and vanilla extract until smooth. If the oats become too stiff or pasty, stir in a spoonful of extra water until the texture is thick but spoonable.
Transfer the oatmeal to a bowl. Swirl in half the almond butter, then top with the remaining almond butter and a light sprinkle of the remaining cinnamon.
