Ingredients

  • 60 g Chocolate whey protein powder
  • 150 g Plain 0% Greek yogurt
  • 16 g Powdered peanut butter (PB2)
  • 1 tbsp Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 250 ml Unsweetened almond milk
  • Ice cubes, to taste

Equipment

  • blender

Method

  1. Add everything to a blender.
  2. Blend until thick and frosty, adding more almond milk to reach the texture you like.

Storage & make-ahead

Best blended fresh. Pre-portion the dry ingredients ahead so it's a 60-second job when you want it.

Tip

Powdered peanut butter gives the flavor of PB with a fraction of the fat and calories. Two scoops of whey + yogurt do the protein heavy lifting.

Dietary swaps

Dairy-free: Chocolate whey protein powder → pea or other plant protein powder; Plain 0% Greek yogurt → unsweetened coconut or soy yogurt (for lactose intolerance or a dairy-free diet)

Nut-free: Powdered peanut butter (PB2) → sunflower-seed butter (e.g. SunButter); Unsweetened almond milk → oat or soy milk (for nut allergies — seeds work just as well)
