Easy Bulletproof Coffee Recipe (Plus a Smoothie Version)
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup hot brewed coffee (a good quality)
- 1 tbsp MCT oil or Brain Octain Oil
- 1 tbsp unsalted grass-fed butter
Instructions
Place all of the ingredients in a blender or Nutribullet and blend until frothy (about 30 seconds). I’ve tried stirring these ingredients together, and it’s just not the same. Trust me, use a blender or a milk frother. 🙂 A milk frother is a great way to avoid dirtying an appliance, but it still makes super creamy bulletproof coffee.
Notes
- Start off slow with MCT oil— it’s powerful! It can cause stomach upset if you’re not used to it. I would start off with 1/2 tbsp or less if you are new to it.
- A few other ingredients you might also enjoy in this coffee are heavy whipping cream, vanilla, cinnamon, unsweetened cocoa powder and/or collagen.
- This coffee has about 230 calories without any of the additions, and is obviously high in fat, therefore, it is meant to be enjoyed along with a ketogenic diet. In fact, because of the high fat and calories, you can drink it as a meal replacement. I personally only drink it a few times a week because it is also low on essential nutrients.
