Protein fluff before and after whipping

Hey!

There are plenty recipes online for these with varying proportions of ingredients, however I noticed that quite a few of those recipes say "Just blend it all and eat!". Well, this kinda… misses the "fluff" part? Here is a visual example of what whisking protein fluff does! Don't miss the opportunity to eat some air with your volume food!

Proportions and ingredients for this are highly customizable, the process is really simple: blend it all real well, then give it a good whisk. I use blender until it is all one smooth mass, very very thick mass, then transfer it to mixing bowl (since it is so thick, for my blender I found that is much easier and less wasteful to unscrew bottom than flip jug upside down) and then give it a good whisk with stick blender (splash guard highly recommended).

Here is exactly what is in the picture:

1. 202g Ice cubes

2. 68g Water

3. 201g Milk 2% fat

4. 154g Frozen banana (frozen at home)

5. 49g Frozen cranberries (store bought)

6. 25g Whey Powder, Vanilla

7. Pinch of xanthan gum (since I have it now, I add it to everything I am whipping, works just fine without it)

For a total of 404 kcal and ~1.5 liter worth of this thing!

You can knock down a good 100kcal from here by using most other frozen fruits instead of banana, i.e. strawberries, but bananas are my favorite here.
