If you’re trying to set up keto meal plans for yourself to follow, this berry protein smoothie is one of the easiest ways to hit your macros, especially if you don’t have a lot of time in the morning! You may also enjoy this low carb blueberry smoothie that is very similar to this smoothie, but tastes more like a blueberry cheesecake!

Ingredients:

Frozen berries – We like a mixture of blackberries, strawberries, raspberries and blueberries. Use whatever you like. Just be aware that different berries have different macro nutrient profiles. We’ll discuss them more in depth below.
Unsweetened almond milk – Or any low carb milk or unsweetened nut milk you prefer here. You could also make this smoothie incredibly creaming by adding in some heavy whipping cream or half and half. This will make it taste more like a milkshake than a smoothie!
Vanilla extract & ground cinnamon – Totally optional, but definitely yummy! You can lower the carbs slightly by omitting it.
Vanilla whey protein – Really any protein powder will do perfectly fine here. This is how we turn this smoothie into a meal! Choose something with no added sugar.
Ice – To your personal preference. Add ice to thicken the smoothie without adding carbs.
Greek yogurt – Or any low carb yogurt. Adds protein and probiotics.
Sweetener of choice – Technically optional, but we like to add a bit of sweetness to our keto smoothie recipes. It’s hard to say how much sweetener to add, as it depends on personal preference. Blend without sweetener first (as many protein powders and yogurts have some sweetness in them) then give it a taste, and add, then blend again if desired.

How to Make A Low Carb Berry Smoothie:

Add nut milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, whey protein and sweetener to the blender.

Tips For The Best Low Carb Smoothie Recipe:

Add ice and liquid to fit your personal smoothie preference. For a thicker smoothie, use more ice and less liquid for blending.
Sweeten to your personal taste.
You could lower the carbs in this smoothie by using a very low carb yogurt.

Can I Make This Low Carb Smoothie Recipe Dairy Free or Vegan?

Yes, absolutely! For dairy-free or vegan substitute whey protein for your favorite protein powder. Also be sure to use your favorite dairy free yogurt.

Can I Freeze This Smoothie?

To freeze this smoothie, make sure to put it in an airtight freezer safe container. To thaw, place it at room temperature until it’s easy to sip.

Optional Add-Ins For The Smoothie:

Add a scoop of collagen in addition to your protein powder for an added boost of protein and nutrients.
Stir in MCT oil or coconut oil for added fats to help satiate you.
Peanut butter or any nut butter adds fat and protein.
Hemp hearts are a wonderful and nutritious source of protein, fat and nutrients on a keto diet (or any diet!) They can be blended or used as a topping. One serving of hemp hearts is 10 grams of protein, plus a great source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Hemp seeds are also a great source of vitamin E and minerals, such as phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, iron and zinc, according to Healthline.
Top with coconut flakes or nuts for added flavor, texture and fats!
Better yet, mix up a batch of our keto trail mix to add tons of flavor. It includes tons of low carb nuts, coconut oil & flakes, hemp hearts and pepitas.
Add fat and creaminess with heavy whipping cream, half-and-half or full fat coconut milk!

There are tons of healthy add-in options to make this delicious smoothie an entire meal!
