Protein-packed peanut butter shake

This protein-packed peanut butter shake is a delicious and nutritious way to fuel your body. Perfect for a post-workout snack or a quick meal replacement, this shake combines the muscle-building power of whey protein with the healthy fats found in peanut butter and flaxseed. The heavy whipping cream adds a creamy texture and rich flavor, making this shake as satisfying as it is healthy.

Ingredients:

1 scoop whey protein powder
30g
2 tbsp heavy whipping cream
30g
1 tbsp peanut butter
16g
1 tbsp flaxseed
10g
1.50 cups water
360g

Instructions:

1. Gather Ingredients: Assemble all your ingredients on the counter or kitchen workspace for easy access.
2. Prepare Blender: Ensure your blender is clean and ready for use.
3. Add Water: Pour 1.5 cups (360g) of water into the blender. Starting with the liquid helps with blending.
4. Add Protein Powder: Add 1 scoop (30g) of whey protein powder to the blender. Choose your favorite flavor to add variety if desired.
5. Add Heavy Cream: Measure 2 tablespoons (30g) of heavy whipping cream and add it to the blender. This will give the shake a creamy texture and rich flavor.
6. Add Peanut Butter: Scoop 1 tablespoon (16g) of peanut butter and add it to the blender. Smooth or chunky peanut butter can be used according to preference.
7. Add Flaxseed: Measure 1 tablespoon (10g) of flaxseed and add it to the blender. This will add fiber and omega-3 fatty acids to your shake.
8. Blend: Secure the blender lid and blend on high speed for about 30-60 seconds, or until all the ingredients are thoroughly mixed and the shake is smooth and creamy.
9. Check Consistency: If the shake is too thick, add a little more water and blend again until the desired consistency is achieved. If it's too thin, add a bit more whey protein powder or peanut butter and blend again.
10. Serve: Pour the protein-packed peanut butter shake into a tall glass.
11. Enjoy: Drink immediately for the best taste and freshness.

Tips:

- For a thicker shake, reduce the amount of water or add a few ice cubes before blending.

- If you prefer a sweeter shake, consider adding a natural sweetener like honey or a few slices of banana.

- To ensure smooth blending, add the water first, followed by the other ingredients.

- For added nutrition, you can throw in a handful of spinach or a small piece of avocado without significantly changing the taste.

- If you have a nut allergy, you can substitute the peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.

This protein-packed peanut butter shake is quick and easy to make, ensuring you get the nutrients you need without sacrificing time or taste. Whether you're looking to recover after a workout or need a quick and healthy meal on the go, this shake has you covered.
