Almond Butter Latte Recipe
Description
This recipe combines freshly brewed coffee with almond butter and coconut oil, blending them to a frothy consistency. Adding collagen peptides enriches the latte with protein, and maple syrup sweetens it if desired. The blending emulsifies the oils and almond butter into the coffee, creating a creamy, smooth texture distinct from traditional lattes that use dairy milk.
The cinnamon topping introduces a gentle spice aroma that complements the nutty almond butter. The combination offers both flavor and a satisfying mouthfeel, making it a suitable alternative coffee drink for those looking to incorporate almond butter and collagen into their routine.
Using a brand of collagen peptides that dissolves easily in hot liquid helps avoid gelling and ensures a smooth drink. Test your collagen product beforehand to ensure compatibility with hot beverages. Blending thoroughly achieves the best frothy texture.
Ingredients
- 1 cup coffee hot brewed
- 1 tablespoon almond butter creamy
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup optional, to taste
- 1 coop collagen peptides see notes, brand Vital Proteins

Instructions
- Place all the ingredients except the cinnamon into your blender. Put the lid on tightly, and blend on high until frothy, about 30 seconds.

Notes
- Use collagen peptides that dissolve easily in hot liquids to avoid gelling; Vital Proteins is one recommended brand.
- Test any new collagen product with hot beverages to ensure smooth blending.
