Healthy Snickers Protein Shake Recipe (Easy, Vegan)
This healthy Snickers protein shake recipe is packed with 30 grams of protein and all of your favorite candy bar flavors.
Equipment
- high speed blender
- measuring cups & spoons
Ingredients
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 3 pitted Medjool dates
- 2 scoops KOS organic superfood vanilla protein powder**
- 2 tablespoons all-natural crunchy peanut butter
- 1 heaping tablespoon cacao nibs or dairy-free chocolate chips
- handful ice
Instructions
- Check your dates to ensure they are soft and sticky. If they are hard or dry, soak them in hot water for 5 minutes, then drain.
- Add all ingredients to a blender and blend for 10-15 seconds. Little bits of dates, peanuts, and cacao nibs should still be in the smoothie. For a smoother sip, blend for up to 45 seconds. Dessert style: top with crushed salted peanuts, and a drizzle of melted chocolate.
Notes
**KOS protein powder's serving size is 2 scoops. Not all proteins require 2 scoops for the serving size, so check your protein and use the suggested serving amount. Adjust milk as needed.
I've also made the smoothie with 1 scoop chocolate and 1 scoop vanilla, customize flavors to suit your preference
For additional protein, swap almond milk for soy milk or flax milk.
