Blueberry Protein Powder Smoothie Ingredients
| Amount | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 1 cup | frozen blueberries |
| 1 scoop | unsweetened or unflavored protein powder |
| 1/2 | ripe banana |
| 3/4 cup | unsweetened almond milk |
| 4 | ice cubes |
Blueberry Protein Powder Smoothie Instructions
Pour the almond milk into the blender, then add the protein powder, banana, blueberries, and ice. Blend on high for about 45 seconds, until the ice is fully crushed and the smoothie is thick and even in color.
This recipe leans on an unsweetened or unflavored protein powder rather than a vanilla or chocolate blend, so the blueberries keep their natural, tart-sweet flavor instead of getting buried under artificial sweetness. It's an easy way to add fifteen to twenty grams of protein without changing what the smoothie tastes like.
Protein powders vary a lot in how they blend — whey tends to dissolve almost instantly, while some plant-based blends can turn slightly gritty if added too early. If yours clumps, try blending the liquid and powder together first before adding the frozen fruit.
