Gather your ingredients. This recipe calls for a banana, ground flaxseed, peanut butter, add-ins of your choice (such as Greek yogurt), and milk. Co-founder Gabriel Bean added: “We’re raring to launch the next phase of our mission in making the cleanest protein shakes on the planet.”
This year has certainly been a tougher climate to raise investment in than previous years, so we’re even more delighted to have surpassed our funding target for our seed round. Our focus is now on building a winning sales team and with that growing our distribution.If you’re looking for this smoothie to be a touch sweeter, feel free to add in a Medjool date as a natural sweetener. Dates also work great in salted caramel protein bites and banana bread to add sweetness without any added sugars. Are flaxseeds healthy? In this smoothie, the banana works as the primary sweetener. That’s why I recommend using an overripe and frozen banana, for a sweeter taste. I am a peanut butter fanatic and eat it on the daily! Whether it’s in my morning oatmeal, homemade hummus, or cereal bars— I love how versatile and affordable this ingredient is.
The flaxseed is completely ground down along with the hemp and chia to a fine powder. That way it easily mixes into your smoothie with no grit. What is Flax?Start small! I know this recipe only has 1 tablespoon of flaxseed, yet if you don’t normally use them as a smoothie booster, then your body may have an adjustment period. Fiber is great (and necessary!) yet loading your body up with fiber can cause some digestive discomfort.
Sales expansion and brand building would be the company’s primary focus over the next year, which will include the launch of NPD, according to the business.Yes! Flaxseeds are a great source of dietary fiber, satiating protein, and heart-healthy fats. They also contain something called “lignans”, which are beneficial plant compounds that can help protect against certain diseases. My flaxseed smoothie is easy to make, yet don’t skimp on the blend time! If you want a non-gritty smoothie, then you’ll have to blend extra long for this one.
