Yummy & Easy High-Protein Cinnamon Roll Smoothie Recipe
Oh boy, this easy high-protein cinnamon roll smoothie recipe is absolutely delicious. If you like cinnamon rolls (who doesn’t) then you must give this a try.
It uses just four ingredients, nothing fancy. Banana, vanilla whey or plant-based protein powder, cinnamon and almond milk (or cow’s milk if you prefer). Ice cubes are optional.
Personally, I use cow’s milk and then I add a splash of almond extract. I also add a pinch of salt.
If you don’t have a protein powder, you can use Greek yogurt or cottage cheese which provide protein and help to make it thicker. Of course, play around with the consistency until you get what you want.
This is great for breakfast or after a big workout, such as a big weight lifting session or long bike ride or run. There’s not a lot of calories in one serving but it packs a protein punch. 👊
