Ice Cream Peanut Butter Weight Gainer Shake Made with Iced Coffee

One of my favorite ways to have a protein shake is with coffee. Not just any coffee, cold coffee.

Not just any cold coffee, Starbucks ‘Sumatra,’ coffee.

Here’s what I do. I brew a 16 oz. pot of Sumatra coffee the night before and let it cool. Then I put it in the refrigerator overnight.

In the morning I pour the chilled coffee into the blender. Next I toss in one medium sized banana. One of my favorite healthy sweets is unsulphured black strap molasses. I add 1 TBSP of black strap molasses and 2 TBSP of chunky peanut butter to the concoction. Then I add in 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder to the blender. Now to make this a true weight gainer shake here comes the good part, add 1 cup of vanilla ice-cream to the mix!

Here are the macronutrient and caloric breakdowns for the ingredients:

Recipe Notes

• To make this a thicker consistency I usually freeze a banana the night before. Make sure to peel the banana before you freeze it. You can also add ice.
• For extra caloric and protein needs add another scoop of protein powder.
• Change it up and try different flavors of ice-cream and protein powder.
