Berry Protein Fluff
What is protein fluff?
Protein fluff is a fluffy, frozen protein “ice cream". It’s extremely customizable, quick, and simple with just three ingredients: frozen fruit, milk, and protein powder. One bowl of strawberry fluff is under 200 calories, yet it offers around 4 cups of pure volume—great for dieting macros or particularly hungry days! The texture is something around marshmallow fluff, and its like a giant bowl of light ice cream! It doesn’t keep very long, but I guarantee that you will want to finish it quickly anyways—it’s so good!
Customizations
I use whey protein powder for my recipe, but I’ve heard that casein works even better. You can swap different fruits, preferred liquids, and flavors of protein powder for countless possibilities! When using unflavored whey, I recommend adding a few drops of sweetener or flavoring. You could even top the bowl with fruits, cacao nibs, coconut flakes, chia seeds, or anything you prefer!
The longer you blend it, the fluffier it will be. On days that I feel more hungry, I will blend my protein fluff until it fills the entire capacity of my blender (I use a NutriNinja bullet-style blender).
