Bulletproof Coffee Recipe

All of a sudden all my social media is blowing up with recipes and health benefits for something called Bulletproof Coffee or Butter Coffee. Basically this is normal brewed coffee blended with a healthy fat like butter or coconut oil, there are several recipes popping up. I wrote a blog awhile ago, telling you that I've been adding a teaspoon of health packed coconut oil to my morning coffee, but this is a little different. Grass-fed butter is the original addition to this coffee. The idea is a super healthy fat will keep you fuller and get your body and brain pumping with a side of extra energy.

I personally like the sounds of this recipe, but I have yet to try it. Only because I keep just regular butter on hand, which will not produce the same results as a grass-fed butter.

The recipe according to stupideasypaleo.com:

Bulletproof®-Style Coffee Recipe

1 cup of hot freshly brewed coffee (I use a French press but any preparation will do)
1 Tablespoon of grass-fed butter or ghee
1 Tablespoon of coconut oil, extra virgin preferably
Optional: sweetener (like raw honey), pumpkin puree, cinnamon, cacao, etc
Variations:
Pumpkin Spice (per 1 cup): add 1 teaspoon pumpkin puree + a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg
Mexican Chocolate (per 1 cup): add 1 teaspoon cacao (or cocoa) + a dash of cinnamon and chili powder
Bulletproof® Chai (per 1 cup): substitute 1 cup of brewed chai tea instead of coffee
Iced Bulletproof®-Style Coffee: prepare the coffee as below, then chill and pour over ice. Trying to do it the other way around (by making cold coffee then blending in the fats) won’t work because the fats won’t emulsify.
Directions:
Prepare the coffee, scaling the recipe up to suit your needs.
Pour hot coffee into a blender. Add the grass-fed butter and coconut oil, plus any extras like spices or sweetener if preferred.
Blend for 30 seconds until frothy and creamy (use caution when using a blender with hot liquids).
Enjoy. You could also use an immersion blender or just melt the butter and oil on top of your hot coffee but I don’t prefer it that way…it ends up like an oil slick. If that’s your thing though, that’s okay
