Enjoy this chocolate collagen protein shake to support collagen synthesis in your joints, gut, and skin.
Some members replaced what used to be their afternoon sugar boost (biscuits, sweets, or dairy chocolate) with this shake and are astonished at the results. They’ve noticed weight loss, improved skin elasticity, boundless energy, better sleep, less creaky bones, stronger nails, and thicker hair.
This also tastes great as a post-workout recovery shake or whenever you need a quick pick-me-up during a busy day.
Pair Chocolate Collagen Protein Shake with:
Ingredients
- 1 cup or 200ml unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk
- 1 scoop of pasture-fed collagen protein powder
- 1 heaped tsp of raw cacao

If you want to thicken this shake, you can add chia seeds or flaxseeds which are both sources of extra fiber and plant-based omega 3. You can also add a banana and a scoop of vegan protein powder. The best flavors for this shake are cappuccino, chocolate, or vanilla. Enjoy!
Chocolate & Sea Salt Brownies
Add to Favourites list
Nutrition
Every time you make these chocolate and sea salt brownies, people will devour them!
We are continuously told that they taste nicer than regular brownies even though they are DAIRY-FREE, GLUTEN-FREE, and GRAIN-FREE.
Ground almonds are a good source of minerals like zinc, potassium, magnesium, and vitamin E – which support the brain, skin, respiratory, and cardiovascular systems. They also aid in regulating blood sugar levels.
Cocoa protects the heart, supports immunity, strengthens the intestinal lining against invading microorganisms, and eases gastrointestinal upsets! Coconut sugar is anti-fungal and will fight gut bacteria, too.
You can really enjoy these brownies without guilt and discomfort – they are good for your health!
Pair our chocolate and sea salt brownies with:
Ingredients
- 2 eggs (at room temperature)
- 2/3 cup or 80g of ground almonds
- 1/4 cup or 80g of cacao powder
- 1/2 cup or 130g of coconut oil
- 1 1/3 or 200g of coconut sugar
- sea salt to decorate
Directions
Preheat your oven at 350 F / 175 C (fan oven).
Beat the eggs and add the coconut sugar, followed by the ground almonds and a pinch of salt. Mix well.
Add the melted (but cooled down) coconut oil and the cacao powder, mix gently as the cacoa powder is fine.
Pour in a greased muffin tray (I use coconut oil) lined with baking paper. Bake at 350 F / 175 C (fan oven) for 18 minutes.
Let it cool down and decorate with sea salt flakes.
Enjoy!! I love having these with a cup of coffee. Total treat but not too naughty.*if you are allergic to nuts or prefer not to use almond flour (ground almonds) for any other reason, you can replace it with quinoa flour. 80g or 2/3 cup of almond flour can be replaced with 50 g or 2/3 cup of quinoa flour.
Storage Tips
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the individual servings. Place them on a baking sheet, then when fully frozen, remove and place them in the container/bag for up to 3 months.
