Banana protein ice cream crunch

 

Post-morning workout feeds have never looked so good.

The cheat: Banana protein ice cream with coconut, almonds and honey drizzle.

The 'grammer: @fitfoodfash

What you’ll need
2 cups low-fat coconut milk (or coconut cream)
2 ripe bananas
2 scoops vanilla protein (we used whey)
1/2 cup plain yoghurt
2 tbsp manuka honey
Cinnamon (optional)

What you’ll do
In a blender, blend coconut milk, bananas, protein, yoghurt, honey and cinnamon if you wish. Mix in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts (optional). Tip into iceblock trays or a large container and freeze. If using iceblock trays, you can eat straight from frozen. If using an ice cream container, you may need to remove from freezer 10 to 30 minutes before eating so it’s soft enough scoop out. Serve with extra honey and nuts.

The WH&F test kitchen tricked this up with almonds and sultanas. Try mixed dried fruit for a festive twist. Mason jars lend a sense of occasion to Christmas dessert too.

I’m trying to spread body love and body positivity because the message can get lost when people are focusing on things like weight loss stories; that’s not what I’m about." Instead of focusing on extreme diet plans , Robyn concentrates on getting fit and healthy. "I think exercise is a really great combat to depression, sadness and generally not feeling good about yourself," she says. "Fitness is where you get your endorphins and how you’re going to make yourself feel empowered. I like kickboxing, swimming and SoulCycle, which is a crazy American trend of cycling in the dark to crazy music. I’m terrible at it. I enjoy yoga as well. "I get into the trends like everyone...
