Ingredients
Scale
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free substitute)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon maple syrup (adjust to taste)
1/4 teaspoon xanthan gum (optional, for thickness)
4-5 ice cubes
Instructions
Place the protein powder, almond milk, Greek yogurt, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and maple syrup into your blender.
Add the ice cubes to the blender.
Secure the lid and blend on high until completely smooth and creamy.
If the shake is too thick, add a splash more milk and blend again.
Pour immediately into a glass.
For an extra touch, sprinkle a tiny bit of extra cinnamon on top before serving.
Notes
You can use a white chocolate or cinnamon flavored protein powder for an even richer taste.
For a lower sugar option, use a sugar-free syrup instead of maple syrup.
If you want a thicker, ice-cream-like texture, use frozen Greek yogurt cubes instead of ice.
