Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by washing the peach thoroughly.
- Pit the peach and cut it into chunks. If desired, you may remove the skin, but it's not necessary as it can blend well.
- Ensure your blender is clean and ready for use.
- Place 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt into the blender. This adds creaminess and a boost of protein to your shake.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of flaxseed into the blender. This ingredient adds fiber and omega-3 fatty acids, contributing to the nutritional value.
- Add the chopped peach pieces to the blender. This will give your shake a fresh and fruity flavor.
- Add 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the mix. This spice not only adds a warm, aromatic flavor but also provides health benefits.
- Scoop 1 serving of whey protein powder into the blender. If your protein powder came with a scoop, use that; if not, measure out approximately 30 grams.
- Pour 1 cup of water into the blender. This helps achieve a smooth consistency. Depending on your preference, you can adjust the amount of water for thicker or thinner shakes.
- Secure the blender lid and blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Pause halfway to scrape down the sides if necessary.
- After blending, check the consistency of your shake. If it's too thick, add a little more water and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
- Pour the peach and cream protein shake into a glass.
- Enjoy your refreshing and nutritious peach and cream protein shake immediately for the best taste and texture.
### Tips:
- For an extra cold and refreshing shake, add a handful of ice cubes before blending.
- If you prefer your shake on the sweeter side, consider adding a teaspoon of honey or a few drops of your favorite sweetener.
- You can substitute water with milk or a plant-based milk alternative for a different flavor and extra creaminess.
Tips:
- For an extra creamy texture, use frozen peach slices instead of fresh ones.
- If you prefer a sweeter shake, you can add a sweetener like honey or stevia to taste.
- To enhance the flavor, try adding a few drops of vanilla extract.
- For a thicker shake, use less water or add a few ice cubes before blending.
- To boost the nutritional value, you might add a handful of spinach or kale.
In just a few simple steps, you can prepare a delectable Peach and Cream Protein Shake that will keep you satisfied and energized. Whether as a breakfast option, post-workout drink, or a between-meal snack, this shake offers a perfect balance of flavors and nutrients. Enjoy the ease of preparation and the delightful taste of this healthy treat.
