We consume a lot of protein powder. I mean, a LOT. Sometimes you’d like to find ways to mix up your protein powder from the typical shake or work a little bonus protein into a recipe. Or perhaps shakes are something you struggle to get down – so why not turn them into something else? Here is a super quick recipe to whip up when you need a protein boost in non-drink form!
Protein Cinnamon Roll http://www.blogilates.com/blog/2011/05/20/protein-cinnamon-roll/
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 4 Tbsp of egg whites or 1 egg
- ½ Tbsp water
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ tsp Splenda
In coffee mug, mix all until well blended. Microwave ~45 sec – keep eye on it as batter rises. Nuke additional 10 sec increments as needed. Flip out onto plate and sprinkle with more cinnamon. For a slightly sweet treat, drizzle 1 Tbsp sugar-free syrup over the top. 1.5 protein servings.
Next time you’re feeling the need to eat your protein powder, rather than drink it, give this option a try! Feast with protein powder, feast with cinnamon, and as always…FEAST ON!!!
