I've been trying to integrate brazil nut protein powder into puddings for a week or so. Happily, 2T of protein powder and 1T of banana are a match made in heaven. The texture is perfect-- creamy, rich and light at the same time.
3/4c very warm water
2T gelatin
1t coconut butter
1/4t salt
2T brazil nut protein powder
1t maca powder
1T cocoa powder
Splash of vanilla
1T banana (I just cut off a piece of a frozen one)
4 or more ice cubes
Place warm water in the blender. While running, gradually add gelatin and coconut butter. Allow to whiz while assembling other ingredients. Add salt, brazil nut protein powder, maca, cocoa powder and vanilla. Next, add banana and blend well. Then add ice cubes in short succession. Blend until mixture is thick. If mixture doesn't thicken, it just isn't cold enough yet; add more ice cubes until it does. Enjoy!
Serves one.

ReplyDeleteCan I make this using whole brazil nuts instead of the powder? That's what I have on hand.
