Instructions

  1. Place the almond milk, coconut cream (if using), almond butter, vanilla extract, and stevia into a blender and blend until mixed.
  2. Add the protein powder, cocoa powder, and ice. Blend until smooth. Serve and enjoy.

Tips

If you like your smoothie extra creamy, try adding 1/4 of an avocado per serving. It will also bulk up the healthy fats to keep you full even longer.

For an even more filling smoothie, add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil or any other healthful oil. You may also substitute the almond milk for 1 cup Greek yogurt if you prefer a dairy-based smoothie. If so, add a little water for a more liquid consistency.

Protein powder

You can also use vanilla flavored whey protein powder in place of the unflavored whey, stevia and vanilla extract. Ensure the protein powder uses natural flavoring and Diet Doctor-approved sweeteners.

Recommended special equipment

High-speed blender.
