250 ml of water
100 g of banana pulp
5 g of soluble barley
20 g of concentrated soy protein

Materials Needed

Glass blender

Prepare the oat milk: soak the oat flakes in the water for at least half an hour. Blend the flakes together with the water, then filter through a cloth to separate the spent pulp from the liquid part.

Did you know that
Oat milk is a low-calorie drink because the amount of fat is significantly lower than animal milk. It is also rich in vitamin E and folic acid.
Oats are rich in fiber and, above all, they stand out from other cereals for their richness in terms of proteins and linoleic acid (essential fatty acid).
To fully appreciate the nutrients of oats, it is advisable to also consume the okara (exhausted pulp, from which it is no longer possible to extract the milk): the okara can be eaten for breakfast (for example in yogurt) or it can be used to prepare raw food biscuits and oat bread.

Collect the oat milk in the blender again, then add the banana (peeled and cut into slices), soy protein and two teaspoons of soluble barley. Blend everything until the mixture is smooth and velvety. If you want a more diluted drink, we recommend adding a little water.
Consume the protein shake immediately or within half an hour of preparation.

Alice's comment - PersonalCooker

This protein shake can be taken up to two hours after a strength training because its ingredients can stimulate muscle protein synthesis. If you like, you can replace the barley with a teaspoon of cocoa and the oat milk with any other type of vegetable milk! If, on the other hand, you want to turn it into a protein snack with a spoon, use less water (about half) and blend everything with the pulp of half an avocado!
