Morning Buzz Shake Low-Calorie

Morning buzz breakfast shake is sure to become a daily favorite during that morning rush. It’s quick to make while keeping you full for a while.

Chocolate and peanut butter. They go together as well as milk and cookies, bacon and eggs, cheese and pizza, peanut butter and jelly. Who else loves peanut butter, but hates the number of calories in peanut butter? That’s what makes this Morning Buzz Shake heavenly.

I was excited to find PBfit. It’s a peanut butter powder with only a fraction of the calories you get in traditional peanut butter. Peanut butter has 180 calories per 2 tablespoons, whereas 2 tablespoons of PBfit is only 70 calories! The best part is it can be used just like traditional peanut butter. Combining 2 tablespoons of the peanut butter powder with 1 1/2 tablespoons of water until smooth makes peanut butter. Plus, it has only 1/3 of the calories found in traditional peanut butter.

There are many incredible things that can be done with peanut butter powder. It can be used as a dip for apples, celery or pretzels. Or mixed it into breads, pancakes or waffles to give them a peanut butter flavor.

Ever wonder how peanut butter powder is made and why it has so many fewer calories? It’s made from roasted peanuts that have been pressed to remove most of the oil. Then ground into a fine powder with most of the fat gone.

This is a great pick me up breakfast shake you can make using PBfit. It is a satisfying and filling shake that is quick to make. It can also be taken on the go on those rushed mornings.

I use almond milk as the base which has only 30 calories in a cup. You can tweak this recipe to your own personal tastes, but I use whey protein powder which is 120 calories for a scoop. Then I also add half of a medium banana. I like to add espresso powder to mine, but it isn’t necessary.
