Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 30 g Chocolate protein powder
- 250 ml Skimmed milk
- 1 Banana
- 1 tablespoon Peanut butter powder
- 1 tablespoon Cocoa powder
- 60 g 0% Fat Free Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Maple syrup
Instructions
- Put all of the ingredient into a blender.
- Blend until smooth.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas: They add natural sweetness and creaminess to the healthy protein shake - the riper, the better.
- Protein powder choice: Choose a high-quality protein powder for the best texture and taste. Chocolate whey or plant-based powders work perfectly.
- PB powder vs. peanut butter: PB powder keeps the shake lower in fat while still giving that peanut butter flavour. You can use a nut butter instead if that is all you have though.
- Sweetness control: Adjust maple syrup to taste; you may not need much if the banana is ripe.
- Boost flavour: A pinch of cinnamon or a few drops of vanilla extract enhances the chocolate flavour.
