‘Tis the season for my salted maple bulletproof protein latte! This is a rendition of my favorite morning coffee drink with an autumn spice- nostalgic of cozy coffee shop drinks. i drink my everyday bulletproof latte for that frothy coffee experience with a protein double punch and brain-boosting healthy fats. this version makes your morning so much cozier.
inspiration:
my daily protein bulletproof latte is a favorite for a reason. in a high-speed blender, you simply blend up your hot morning coffee with a few ingredients and it emulsifies into a creamy dreamy coffee drink without creamers full of junk and chemicals. For this recipe, I added a big protein boost. you can use your favorite protein powder and collagen, (my picks together yield a whopping 38 grams of protein).
although I love pumpkin, I wanted to make a fall version that focused on pure maple syrup with a bit of whimsy with pumpkin pie spice. it’s usually a combination of warming spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and mace. What else does sweet need? that’s right, it’s salt. flaky sea salt or mineral salt is a dream paired with the maple in this bulletproof. it almost gives it a caramel-type note and it’s sure to please.
salted maple bulletproof ingredients:
I’ve been drinking bulletproof coffees for the past several years mainly for the brain boosting benefits from the healthy fats and the benefits of collagen for hair, skin and nails. this salted maple bulletproof latte is also great for an extra dose of healthy fats.
- pastured butter: one of the main components of a bulletproof latte.
- mct coconut oil: a brain-boosting healthy fat that helps allow the latte to emulsify.
- collagen: great for your hair, skin, nails.
- vanilla protein powder: helps maintain muscle mass and keep you full and satiated. this brand is my current favorite.
- pure maple syrup: provides sweetness and that cozy autumn flavor.
- flaky salt: the salted portion of our delicious bulletproof.
- hot brewed coffee: we use organic and mold-free coffee beans that we grind at home.
