Chocolate Muesli Date Shake
Sometimes it’s easier to get a quick recovery snack in right after a ride vs. consuming an entire meal. Using the Chocolate Muesli Recipe for this shake provides the ideal base for what you need when it comes to recovery: Carbs and protein. Adding in the banana and dates provides another layer of carbs while cinnamon contains anti-inflammatory properties, which can help ease swelling.
Ingredients
1/2 cup Chocolate Bircher Muesli (Bakin’ Bikers Club Recipe)
1/2 cup milk of choice
1 banana, frozen
3 Medjool dates, pitted
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup ice cubes
Hemps seeds for topping
Directions
Once chocolate muesli has been soaked overnight, combine 1/2 cup muesli with milk, banana, dates, cinnamon, and ice cubes in a high-speed blender. Blend until everything is smooth and the dates are in small pieces. Top with hemp seeds or your favorite shake toppings. Enjoy!
