Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (of choice)
  • 1 scoop protein powder (30g)
  • 6 oz vanilla yogurt or 1 banana

  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • Sweetener of choice (to taste)
  • Optional: 1 spoonful almond butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Start with cold milk and vanilla yogurt, or substitute the yogurt with a frozen banana for a smoother texture and natural sweetness.
  2. Blend the Shake: Add the milk, protein powder, yogurt or banana, ground cinnamon, salt, sweetener, and optional almond butter into a blender.
  3. Mix until Smooth: Blend all ingredients on high speed until you achieve a creamy and smooth consistency without any lumps.

Notes

  • Use a frozen banana instead of yogurt for a dairy-free, naturally sweet option.
  • Adjust sweetness according to the sweetness of your protein powder and milk choice.
  • The optional almond butter adds healthy fats and creaminess but can be omitted for lower fat content.
  • Consider using cinnamon stick powder for a more intense cinnamon flavor.
  • This shake is best consumed immediately to take advantage of its fresh flavor and optimal texture.
