My "Keto Coffee" or "Bulletproof Coffee" recipe

My typical "keto coffee" or "bulletproof coffee" recipe. Since Bulletproof is a brand, I use cheap coffee. I'd encourage you to start with what you have already and make it your own. You don't have to have MCT Oil for instance. A friend of mine who'd been in Keto told me about it, and I just took his recommendation as is.

Please note: If you aren't used to high fat in your diet (most of us are not), start slow with 1 Tbsp of oil and work up a teaspoon at a time if your body is ok with that. It's common for some people to experience stomach issues when starting. I also would not exceed 2 Tbps. of oil, or you might want to make sure you are near a bathroom and not on a long commute to work. This coffee can get "things moving" quickly if you aren't used to two tablespoons of oil in the morning. I'd recommend working up from one tablespoon and going from there.

  • Starbucks Morning Joe your favorite coffee (I get Morning Joe because it's cheap $8 a bag cheap at my favorite grocery store)
  • 1 Tbsp NOW MCT Oil ($19.50 on Amazon) - One of these will last you six months to a year, and it's flavorless.
  • 1 Tbsp Butter Coconut Oil (I rotate between butter and coconut oil based on my mood) use both and cut out the MCT Oil
  • 3 Tbsp Heavy Cream 3 Tbsp Organic Coconut Milk ($2.39 per can on Amazon which lasts me ~2 weeks)
  • Three to five drops of NOW Better Stevia Hazelnut sweetener ($7.59 on Amazon) (less is more with Stevia so start with 1 or 2 drops) - One of these will last you months too.
  • 1/2 scoop Vanilla Protein Powder

Put all of this in a blender or shaker container and blend/shake it for 15 to 30 seconds.
