*I don't recommend using
whey protein powder in this recipe. The flavor just didn't pair well with the peanut flour when I tried it.
**I use Konjac Foods brand glucomannan (from
Amazon or
Netrition). Different brands can vary in strength, so if you're using a stronger brand like the
Trim Healthy Mama brand and think the drink is slimy, try decreasing the amount of glucomannan. (Or just learn to embrace it and enjoy it for all its health and weight loss benefits.) This amount in the brand I use is not slimy but does make the drink fairly thick and foamy. It's so filling!
-Not all defatted peanut flour is created equal. I prefer ProteinPlus brand, which you can purchase
here on Amazon or
here from Netrition.
-This drink will thicken as it cools, so I don't recommend making it ahead and refrigerating it unless you want a gluccie pudding.
