Indulge in a nutritious and delicious Coconut Protein Milkshake that's perfect for post-workout recovery or as a refreshing, healthy snack. Combining the rich, creamy flavor of coconut milk with the protein punch of whey powder, and the added nutritional benefits of chia seeds and flaxseed, this milkshake is both satisfying and energizing.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Measure out 1.5 cups (340g) of coconut milk and pour it into a blender.
- Add an additional 1/4 cup (60g) of coconut milk to the blender.
2. Add the Protein and Seeds:
- Place 1 scoop (30g) of whey protein powder into the blender with the coconut milk.
- Add 1 tablespoon (12g) of chia seeds.
- Include 1 tablespoon (10g) of flaxseed.
- Add 7 ice cubes (160g) to the blender to chill and thicken the milkshake.
4. Blend the Ingredients:
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. This should take about 1-2 minutes depending on your blender's power.
- If the milkshake is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more coconut milk and blend again.
- Alternatively, if it's too thin, you can add more ice cubes and blend until the desired consistency is reached.
6. Serve:
- Pour the milkshake into a tall glass.
- Optionally, you can garnish with some shredded coconut, extra chia seeds, or a sprinkle of flaxseed on top.
- The milkshake is best enjoyed immediately while it's cold and refreshing.
### Tips:
- For added flavor, consider adding a dash of vanilla extract or a teaspoon of honey.
- If you're not a fan of whey protein, you can substitute it with plant-based protein powder.
Tips:
- Ensure the coconut milk is chilled before blending to achieve a creamier texture.
- For an extra boost of flavor, you can add a few drops of vanilla extract or a spoonful of honey.
- If you prefer a thicker consistency, reduce the number of ice cubes or add a frozen banana to the mix.
- Use a high-quality whey protein powder to ensure a smooth blend and great taste.
- Blend the ingredients in stages, adding the chia seeds and flaxseed last to avoid clumping.
This Coconut Protein Milkshake is a perfect blend of taste and nutrition, providing you with the necessary protein, healthy fats, and fiber to keep you energized and satiated. Follow the tips to customize it to your liking and enjoy a deliciously healthy treat anytime of the day.
