@maddytrueman: 20g + protein in this creamy gelatin hot chocolate! I go through stages of being completely obsessed with this Gelatin Hot Chocolate recipe. Here’s why: - It is made with only a few ingredients that you can keep in your pantry. - It is rich in minerals, especially magnesium, thanks to the cacao and sea salt (hello mood boosting and reducing stress!) - It provides over 20g of protein thanks to the gelatin. - High-quality gelatin has so many benefits for gut health, sleep health, joint and bone health, digestive health and skin, nail and hair health. The biggest winner? Drinking them regularly makes you feel SO GOOD. This would be an excellent recipe for pregnant and postpartum mums due to the high collagen content - skin and joint support and healing + gentle energy support. Ingredients: - 2.5 tbsp high-quality grass-fed gelatin - 1/4 cup water - 200ml coconut milk, cow’s milk or other milk of your choice (I love the brand Cocoquench) - 2-3 tsp raw cacao - Small dash of pure maple syrup (optional - balances the bitterness of cacao) - Pinch of sea salt Optional add ins: tsp of ghee (for extra healthy fats), adaptogens of your choice (I love adding reishi for the calming effects), peppermint oil. Method: 1. Mix the gelatin and water in a small bowl. Set aside to bloom. 2. In a small saucepan, combine the coconut milk, cacao, bloomed gelatin, maple, sea salt and any optional add ins. Bring to a gentle simmer. 3. Transfer to a heat-proof blender and blend OR use a small handheld milk frother to blend until smooth. Using the blender will create a fluffier hot chocolate, but both options work well! 4. Pour into a cup and drink immediately! If you leave it too long it will get very thick due to the gelatin. Enjoy! My favourite gelatin brands are @gelproaustralia & @cellsquared and @changinghabits_hq Pleaseee let me know if you make this! 🙈 #highprotein #highproteindrink #guthealth #skinhealth #hairhealth #gelatin #collagen #collagendrink #healthy #wellness #healthyhotchocolate #hotchocolate
