Just when I start getting obsessed with icy, smooth, cream Whey protein powder shakes and smoothies....it gets whey (see what i did there) too cold to drink them. So here I am, begging, pleading, screaming out to my fellow MFPers and protein powder enthusiast. What can I do with my protein powder that is nice and warm? I am open to anything as long as no source of animal fat (can't process it due to a surgery) and I would prefer if not a lot of nuts/nut butters....but let em rip :)

    okay not a recipe but i add it to my oatmeal. i get the plain packet of quaker oats, microwave with a bit more water then it asks for. then add one scoop of vanilla protein powder and cinamon. easy breakfast and done in a couple minutes (working mom with a 11 month old!)

    I tried that but it was so gritty I wasn't a fan, but maybe I didn't add enough water...

    I do a scoop of protein powder, 1/4 c of pumpkin purée, 4 ounces of unsweetened vanilla almond milk and coffee, protein pumpkin latte and it's freaking delicious

    I add some of the vanilla flavor (mixed smooth with a bit of water) to my coffee like a creamer.

    I also do my protein powder, pumpkin, T of coconut flour and water, stevia, and mix into like a dough and then heat it, it's like pumpkin pie filling and I top it with a cinnamon crumble I make with a little casein, coconut flour, almond milk, baking powder and cinnamon. (All are very small amounts, half T of coconut flour, pinch of baking powder, pinch of cinnamon, 1/2 packet stevia, 5 g of casein, T of the milk, so it comes out crumbly).
