Strawberry Protein Fluff

Ingredients

• 100 g frozen strawberries (frozen strawberries)
• 75 g ice cubes (ice cubes)
• 50 ml skim milk (skim milk; any milk variant works)
• 12 g protein powder (protein powder; note that vegan protein powder works significantly less well for fluffing)
• 10 g sugar substitute (sugar substitute)
• 0.25 tsp xanthan gum (optional; for even more fluff effect)

Steps

1. 1

   Place the 100g frozen strawberries and 75g ice cubes into a food processor.

2. 2

   Mix until the mixture becomes a 'frozen crumb' consistency.

3. 3

   Add 50ml of milk to the food processor.

4. 4

   Mix again until the milk is fully incorporated into the ice crumbs.

5. 5

   Add 12g protein powder, 10g sugar substitute, and optionally 0.25 tsp xanthan gum to the processor.

6. 6

   Let the machine mix for 3 to 5 minutes. The longer you mix, the fluffier the texture will become.

7. 7

   While mixing, occasionally use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is evenly incorporated.

8. 8

   Scoop the mixture into a large bowl and serve immediately.

Notes

Tip: Garnish with fresh strawberries, grated chocolate, or a crumbled cookie. Note that vegan protein powder does not fluff as well as whey or casein. The xanthan gum is highly recommended for the best texture.
