Ingredients

  • 2 cups dry milk powder
  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • ½ cup hemp seeds
  • ½ cup sliced or slivered almonds

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a blender.
  • Blend well to grind the ingredients into a smooth powder.
  • Transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 1 month or in the freezer for up to 6 months.
  • To use, add 2 tablespoons to each smoothie.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 6 months.
  • Add 4 tablespoons to a standard smoothie recipe to increase the protein amount.
  • Dairy-free: Look for vegan powdered milk (which is often made from coconut milk) as an option.
  • Nut-free: Skip the almonds. You can double the hemp seeds if you'd like.
  • Chocolate Protein Powder: Add 2-3 tablespoons cup cocoa powder to the mix. You will want to add 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup to the smoothie (or very sweet fruit) to balance the flavors.
  • Peanut Butter Protein Powder: Add 1/2 cup powdered peanut butter, such as PB Fit, to the mix.
  • To use, add 1-2 tablespoons to a kids smoothie, Protein Shake, or Flavored Milk.
