Notes
Cinnamon Roll Protein Smoothie
Starting with a base of almond milk or any milk of your choice, add a ripe banana for natural sweetness and a boost of potassium, which helps maintain nerve and muscle function. A scoop of your favourite protein powder ensures muscle repair and growth, working hand in hand with the energy-replenishing qualities of the banana.
Adding a teaspoon of cinnamon brings a warm and spicy note to the smoothie and possesses anti-inflammatory properties. To round it off, a spoonful of almond or peanut butter adds a creamy texture and a dose of healthy fats, aiding in sustained energy release.
With its balanced combination of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, this smoothie makes for a great pre and post-workout drink, fueling your workout and aiding in recovery afterwards.
