Ingredients

  • 1 cup vanilla protein powder whey or plant-based
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt full-fat or low-fat
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon plus extra for garnish
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes adjust for thickness

Notes

For a thicker shake, use frozen banana instead of ice cubes. This shake can be made vegan by using plant-based protein powder and maple syrup. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; shake well before drinking as separation may occur.
