Nutrition Facts For this Boba Nutrition Recipe
FAQs Boba Protein Recipes
What apples will work best in this protein shake?
Sweet apples, such as Honeycrisp, Fuji, and Gala, work best for this particular recipe, but you can make it with more tart apples like Granny Smith if you wanted a tangier taste.
Can I Make This Smoothie Ahead of Time?
Yes, this smoothie can be prepared in advance and placed in the fridge up to 24 hours. Then, you will want to shake it up real well or stir before consuming to re-emulsify. That is basically just a technical way of saying shake really hard .
Can I make this without banana?
Absolutely. If you are not wanting banana, you can substitute in 1/4 avocado for creaminess or you can add just a little bit more apple to keep the sweetness without the banana.
What can I substitute for almond butter?
You can swap the almond butter out for whatever nut butter you like, everything from classic peanut butter to cashew or even sunflower seed butter to make the smoothie nut-free.
Can I heat this smoothie for a warm drink?
If you want it even cozier, the almond milk can be gently warmed before being blended in; however, try not to make the protein powder too hot, as this changes its texture.
