Some of the best protein supplements might be an option for you to build muscles and get in shape. But they can be expensive, contain lots of artificial ingredients, and in most of the cases you don’t even know what all those ingredients are (especially if you’re a beginner).

So, instead, why not doing it yourself, at home, knowing every single ingredient that comes into this protein powder preparation?

Let’s see what are those 3 nutritious ingredients found in this natural protein powder recipe and how can they help you build muscle mass and burn body fat.

3-Ingredient Natural Protein Powder

One scoop of this natural protein powder has about 10 grams of protein and 140 calories. Here are the ingredients used for its preparation:

1. Dry Milk Powder

One cup of dry milk powder has just 240 calories, a whopping 24 grams of protein, and lots of essential nutrients. It also includes whey protein just like the liquid milk, which is great for muscle recovery.

2. Dry Oats

One cup of dry oats has about 300 calories, 11 grams of protein, and 8 grams of fiber (which is one third of the recommended daily amount of fiber for a woman).

Even though dry oats is used as a thickener in this recipe, its high fiber content makes it a great hunger suppressant. It will keep you full for longer and thus will aid in weight loss.

3. Almonds

They also contain a considerable amount of fiber and protein, while it’s also packed with heart-healthy fats.
