- 1 cup ice cubes
Optional Ingredients
- Sweetener to taste (such as stevia or honey)
- Toppings like fresh berries, nut butter, or granola
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the protein powder, unsweetened almond milk, xanthan gum, and ice cubes to a high-powered blender.
- Blend: Blend on high speed for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture thickens and becomes fluffy, expanding to nearly three times its original volume.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste the fluff and add optional sweetener if desired, blending briefly again to incorporate.
- Serve: Scoop the protein fluff into a large bowl and top with your choice of fresh berries, nut butter, or granola. Enjoy immediately for best texture.
Notes
- For a creamier texture, use casein protein powder or a blend of whey and casein.
- If xanthan gum is unavailable, omit it; the fluff will be less airy but still tasty.
- Substitute ice cubes with frozen fruit to add flavor and nutrients.
