Banana oat protein shake

Pasteurized egg whites are safe raw, so they blend straight into a shake: no powder, no chalky aftertaste, just banana, oats and milk. The whites taste of nothing and make it frothy.

Tips

  • A spoon of tahini or peanut butter makes it richer (and adds about 3–4 g of protein).
