Low Carb Creamy Cinnamon Shake

This quick and easy Keto shake is rich, creamy, and loaded with healthy fats. Our simple low-carb smoothie is prepared with unsweetened almond milk, fragrant cinnamon, creamy avocado, coconut cream, and low-carb maple-flavored syrup. The ingredients are simply blended together then served over ice. This beverage is perfect as a breakfast smoothie or as a treat throughout the day.

What is coconut cream?

Coconut cream is thicker and richer in flavor and consistency than coconut milk. It also contains more fats. You can buy pure coconut cream from the grocery store, or alternatively, you can use the cream from a can of coconut milk. To do this, simply chill a can of coconut milk and scoop the firm cream layer from the top. The remaining liquid can be reserved for another recipe if desired.

Can you use a different sweetener?

We have used a low-carb maple-flavored syrup for this Keto drink recipe. The flavor of the syrup perfectly complements the creaminess of the coconut and almond and the warming cinnamon. If you prefer, you may use an alternative low-carb sweetener such as a powdered sweetener or stevia drops, adjusting the quantities to taste. Please be sure to adjust your macros accordingly to account for any changes made to the original recipe.

Can you add protein powder to this Keto shake?

Of course, you can. However, you can't use any type of protein powder for this recipe because many brands are high in carbs. A quick search will give you a long list of Keto-friendly brands for you to try. As for flavoring, any low-carb protein powder in the flavor of vanilla will work.
