APPLE CINNAMON PROTEIN SHAKE

The Apple Cinnamon Protein Shake is a delicious and nutritious blend that tastes like apple pie in a glass. This shake combines the natural sweetness of fresh apple with warm cinnamon, creamy almond milk and vanilla protein powder to create a satisfying and protein-packed drink. It’s an excellent option for a quick breakfast, post-workout recovery or a healthy snack. The fibre from the apple keeps you full, while the protein powder helps with muscle recovery. The cinnamon not only adds a warm, comforting flavour but also offers metabolism-boosting benefits. This shake is perfect for autumn but enjoyable year-round as a refreshing yet cosy drink. Whether you’re looking for a quick meal or a nutritious boost, this shake is both delicious and easy to make.
