Vanilla Protein Coffee Creamer
Hey there, friends! If you love coffee and want to add protein and creaminess to your cup of joe, you’ll love this Vanilla Protein Coffee Creamer.
It’s very easy, and you’ll never need to buy creamers from the store again.
My friend told me about this recipe, and I can’t stop making it.
It’s simple to make, you can change it however you want, and it works with both hot and iced coffee. You won’t want your coffee without it again, I promise!
Ingredients
- 1 scoop (10–20g) of vanilla protein powder
- 1 cup of almond milk without sugar (or any other milk you like)
- 1–2 teaspoons of pure maple syrup (or any sweetener you like)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (for more vanilla flavor!)
You can add a little cinnamon or cocoa powder if you want.
Tools
- A hand whisk or a blender
- Spoons and cups for measuring
- A jar or bottle to keep your creamer in
Instructions
- Put your vanilla protein powder, almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a blender. Add a little bit of cocoa powder or cinnamon if you want to be fancy.
- For 30 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps, blend on high.
- Try your creamer. Add a little more maple syrup if you want it to be sweeter. Blend it again after adding a little more almond milk if it is too thick.
- Put the creamer in a bottle or jar with a lid. Put it in the fridge and shake it well before using it.
- Add 2 to 4 tablespoons (or more, if you like!) to your hot or iced coffee. Mix well and enjoy the creamy vanilla flavor.
Tips & Variations
- Choose the right protein powder: Make sure the protein powder you use mixes well and goes well with the vanilla flavor.
- Take it easy with the sweetener. Start with a little and add more if you want.
- Blend for a smooth texture: Blending makes sure your creamer is smooth and frothy. A whisk can work, but blending makes it even creamier.
- Want a thicker creamer? Change it. Less milk. Do you want a thinner one? Put in a little more almond milk.
- Shake before using: Protein powder tends to settle, so shake your creamer well before adding it to your coffee.
- If you like, you can use oat milk, cashew milk, coconut milk, or even regular dairy milk.
- You can use agave syrup, honey, monk fruit, or even a few drops of liquid stevia instead of maple syrup.
- For fun flavor twists, add a splash of almond extract, hazelnut extract, or pumpkin spice.
- Use caramel, chocolate, or even plain protein powder to change things up.
