Maple Protein Fluff

Tried this out tonight. It tasted good, but I need to find a better way to crush ice as I was shooting chunks of ice around and crunching through them when eating the fluff.

40 grams of unflavoured 80% Whey Protein
3 Tbls of Maple Syrup
Probably 1.5 Cups of Crushed Ice
.5 tsp Xanthan Gum

As I said it fluffed, but the ice really needed to be crushed better. Maybe next time

319 Calories 33 grams protein.

    OH NO! It might, but I suspect the solvent aspect of the alcohol would cause problems. Only a guess though.

    yep! Was actually think red wine could work better being slightly less alcoholic? Hmm...

    Red wine could be interesting. It will be interesting just to see what comes out of this.

    Modified it a bit this time 4.5Tbl maple syrup, 30 grams of the unflavored protein power, and 100 grams of liquid egg whites.

    Used a bunch of it on top of a piece of chocolate cheese cake, then finished off the rest.

    that looks awesome!

    Also, the red wine one worked but tasted like *kitten* to me.

    Whey or casein protein? And what brand of liquid egg whites?

    It was a bulk unflavored whey protein, and the egg whites are the ones from Costco here in Canada, Golden Egg Just Egg Whites is the name I think.

    dry

    That might be the issue. Most dry reds I have are very tannic, and I can't imagine that would go well with protein fluff. Even without that a little sweetness could make a big difference. Frankly I will just keep drinking my wine. I think I will learn from your experience and not try it in fluff. :wink:
