Healthy Recipes
There
are a ton of great "recipes" for protein freezer pops
floating around the internet, but I wanted a pop that wasn't "icy" (like frozen
milk), or full of dairy (which doesn't fit everyone's in-season diet), or have a
ton of ingredients. So... I went back to my banana-protein ice cream recipe and
kept it simple.
You can add a fat if you've room for it (like nut butter, coconut butter,
avocado, etc), or you can keep it like it is - a great post-workout, hot weather
treat!
Banana Chocolate Protein
Fudgsicles
Recipe by Chelle Stafford
makes 4 large popsicles*
INGREDIENTS
2 large bananas**
2 scoops chocolate protein powder (I used Champion Performance Pure Whey)
1/4 to 1/2 cup unsweeetened chocolate almond milk
DIRECTIONS
In a blender or food processor, blend bananas until smooth. Add
protein powder, and while still blending, pour in almond milk, a little at a
time, until smooth and creamy.
Pour mixture into popsicle molds and freeze a minimum of 2 hours.
To remove from molds, run under hot water until you can wiggle the popsicle out.
Enjoy!
