This is really satisfying because it's very high in fat. I was looking for a lower-protein alternative to my whey protein shakes, but I don't care for the raw egg in a cold drink, so I made one with hot water instead.
Basic Drink
1 T coconut oil
1 T unsalted butter
1 egg
1 C boiling water
Melt the two fats together in the microwave for a few seconds. Add the egg, and mix together. (A stick blender works nicely.) Pour on the boiling water, and blend again.
From My P.L.A.N.:
0.4 gr carbs, 6.3 gr protein, 29.6 gr fat, 291 kcals
An extra egg makes it a filling breakfast on a cold morning. The breakdown is then:
0.8 gr carbs, 12.6 gr protein, 34.5 gr fat, 364 kcals
I quite like this as it is, but it's a bit thin and is much improved with the addition of other ingredients. Bear in mind that the carb counts will depend upon what you add.
A couple of my favourites are:
- unsweetened chai tea in place of the plain water, with a drop of Sweetzfree added;
- strong coffee instead of the water;
- ¼ t cinnamon and freshly grated nutmeg, and Sweetzfree;
- 2 t dark cocoa.
If you can do dairy a tablespoon of double cream really makes it decadent.
It will probably work well with SF syrups too.
