Description
This Peaches n Cream Protein Milkshake combines the nostalgic flavor of peaches and cream with a protein-packed, creamy texture. Made with real fruit, cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt), and vanilla protein powder, it’s a refreshing and indulgent post-workout treat, snack, or dessert. With 35g of protein per serving, it’s perfect for refueling and satisfying your sweet tooth.
Ingredients
1 ripe peach (fresh or frozen)
½ cup cottage cheese or Greek yogurt (for creaminess + protein)
1 tablespoon maple syrup (or honey, stevia, or agave to taste)
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (I used Clean Simple Eats)
Pinch of salt
Optional: Whipped cream for topping
Optional: Vanilla extract or cinnamon for added flavor
Optional: A few ice cubes (if using fresh peach)
Instructions
- Combine the Ingredients: Add the peach, cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt), maple syrup (or preferred sweetener), vanilla protein powder, and a pinch of salt to a high-speed blender.
- Blend: Blend until smooth and creamy. If you’re using fresh peach, add ice cubes for a milkshake-like chill.
- Serve: Pour the shake into a glass and top with whipped cream for an indulgent touch.
- Enjoy: Sip and savor the nostalgic taste of peaches and cream in every creamy, protein-packed bite!
- Pro Tip: If using a regular blender, blend the cottage cheese/yogurt and peach first for a smoother base before adding protein powder and ice.
Notes
- Sweetener: Adjust sweetener to taste. Maple syrup, honey, or stevia work well.
- Customization: Add vanilla extract or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a warm, spiced flavor that pairs perfectly with the peach.
- Ice Cubes: Use ice for a thicker, colder texture, especially if using fresh peaches.
