White Chocolate Blueberry

Blueberry Overnight Oats

The one to make on Sunday night when Monday already looks busy. Five minutes now, breakfast handled tomorrow.

  • Time5 min+8 h chilling
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 32 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO White Chocolate Blueberry
  • 40 g rolled oats
  • 150 ml milk or any plant milk
  • 60 g curd or thick yoghurt
  • 1 tsp chia seeds
  • A handful of fresh or frozen blueberries

How to make it

  1. Stir the oats, chia and KABO sachet together in a jar while they're dry — this is the trick that stops lumps forming later.
  2. Pour in the milk and curd. Stir until there's no dry powder left at the bottom.
  3. Press the blueberries in on top, lid on, fridge overnight (at least 6 hours).
  4. Eat cold, straight from the jar. If it's thicker than you like, loosen it with a splash of milk.

Worth knowing Cold-soaked, not cooked — so the probiotics and enzymes stay alive in this one.

Butter Coffee

Iced Protein Coffee

Your morning coffee and your protein in the same glass, which is the whole idea behind Butter Coffee in the first place.

  • Time3 min
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 26 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO Butter Coffee
  • 200 ml cold water or chilled milk
  • 1 shot of brewed espresso or 1 tsp instant coffee in 30 ml hot water, cooled
  • A tall glass of ice

How to make it

  1. Shake the KABO sachet with the cold water in a bottle for twenty seconds, until smooth.
  2. Let the coffee cool to room temperature — pouring hot coffee straight in makes it foam over and dulls the flavour.
  3. Fill a glass with ice, pour the shake over, then the coffee on top so it marbles through.
  4. Stir once and drink cold.

Worth knowing Skip the extra coffee shot if you're sensitive to caffeine — the sachet already has real coffee in it.

Butter Coffee

Two-Minute Protein Mug Cake

Dessert that takes less time than deciding what to order. Microwave only — no oven, no batter left over.

  • Time5 min
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 30 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO Butter Coffee
  • 2 tbsp atta or oat flour
  • 1 egg (or 3 tbsp curd for an eggless version)
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cocoa powder
  • A little jaggery or honey, if you want it sweeter

How to make it

  1. Mix every dry thing in a large microwave-safe mug first — flour, KABO, baking powder, cocoa.
  2. Add the egg and milk. Beat with a fork until the batter is smooth and no powder is stuck to the sides.
  3. Microwave on high for 90 seconds. Give it another 20–30 seconds only if the middle still looks wet.
  4. Rest it for a minute before eating — it firms up as it cools, and the inside is very hot.

Worth knowing Heat kills the live probiotics in this one. Protein, vitamins and minerals are unaffected.

White Chocolate Blueberry

Blueberry Smoothie Bowl

Thick enough to eat with a spoon, which somehow makes it feel like a proper meal rather than a drink.

  • Time6 min
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 30 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO White Chocolate Blueberry
  • 1 frozen banana, broken into pieces
  • 80 g frozen blueberries
  • 100 ml milk or plant milk — no more, or it turns into a smoothie
  • To finish: seeds, chopped fruit, a spoon of granola

How to make it

  1. Put the frozen fruit in the blender first, then the KABO, then the milk on top.
  2. Blend in short bursts, scraping down the sides. Add milk one tablespoon at a time only if the blades stall.
  3. Tip into a cold bowl — it should hold the shape of the spoon.
  4. Top with the seeds and fruit and eat it straight away, before it melts.

Worth knowing Freeze ripe bananas in chunks whenever you have spares. It's the difference between a bowl and a puddle.

Banana Protein Pancakes

Weekend breakfast that doesn't leave you hungry by eleven. Makes six small pancakes.

  • Time18 min
  • Makes2 servings
  • Proteinabout 18 g each
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO (either flavour)
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 2 eggs
  • 50 g oats, blitzed to a coarse flour
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • A little ghee or oil for the pan

How to make it

  1. Mash the banana properly — lumps turn into raw streaks in the finished pancake.
  2. Whisk in the eggs, then fold through the oat flour, KABO and baking powder. Let the batter sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
  3. Heat a non-stick pan on medium-low. Too hot and the outside browns before the centre sets.
  4. Spoon in small rounds, cook until bubbles form and the edges look dry, flip, and give them another minute.

Worth knowing Cooked, so the probiotics don't survive. Butter Coffee gives you a mocha pancake; White Chocolate Blueberry a sweeter one.

Either flavour

No-Bake Protein Laddoos

Makes ten. Keep them in the fridge for the 4 pm slump, when the alternative is whatever's in the office vending machine.

  • Time15 min+30 min chilling
  • Makes10 servings
  • Proteinabout 4 g each
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO (either flavour)
  • 150 g soft dates, pitted
  • 60 g roasted peanuts or almonds
  • 30 g desiccated coconut, plus extra for rolling
  • 1 tbsp ghee, melted
  • A pinch of sea salt

How to make it

  1. Blitz the nuts alone first, until coarse. Set aside a spoonful for texture.
  2. Blend the dates to a sticky paste, then add the nuts, coconut, KABO, ghee and salt. Pulse until it clumps together when pressed.
  3. If it won't hold, add a teaspoon of water at a time. If it's too wet, another spoon of coconut.
  4. Roll into ten balls, coat in coconut, and chill for 30 minutes to firm up.

Worth knowing No heat anywhere, so this is one of the few make-ahead recipes where the cultures survive. Keeps a week in the fridge.

White Chocolate Blueberry

Ragi Protein Porridge

The koozh your grandmother made, with the protein a working day actually needs.

  • Time11 min
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 30 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO White Chocolate Blueberry
  • 30 g ragi flour
  • 250 ml water
  • 100 ml milk
  • Jaggery to taste
  • A pinch of cardamom

How to make it

  1. Whisk the ragi flour into cold water before it goes anywhere near the stove — this is the only reliable way to avoid lumps.
  2. Cook on medium, stirring constantly, for 5–6 minutes until it thickens and loses the raw smell.
  3. Take it off the heat and let it cool until it's warm, not hot — about five minutes.
  4. Now stir in the milk, jaggery, cardamom and the KABO sachet. Adding it off the heat keeps the flavour clean.

Worth knowing Stirring the sachet in off the heat protects the taste; the porridge itself was boiled, so treat the probiotics as lost.

White Chocolate Blueberry

Post-Workout Protein Lassi

Curd and protein, cold and salted-sweet. Made for the forty minutes after you put the weights down.

  • Time4 min
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 33 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO White Chocolate Blueberry
  • 150 g chilled curd
  • 100 ml cold water
  • 60 g mango or blueberries
  • A pinch of salt
  • Ice

How to make it

  1. Whisk the curd alone until smooth — lumpy curd stays lumpy no matter how long you blend it afterwards.
  2. Add the water, fruit, KABO and salt. Blend for 30 seconds.
  3. Pour over ice and drink within the hour after training.
  4. Thin it with more water if you like it drinkable rather than spoonable.

Worth knowing The pinch of salt isn't optional — it's what makes a lassi taste like a lassi instead of a milkshake.

Butter Coffee

Coffee Chia Pudding

Make it at night, and there's a cold coffee dessert in the fridge waiting for you tomorrow.

  • Time5 min+4 h chilling
  • Makes2 servings
  • Proteinabout 15 g each
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO Butter Coffee
  • 3 tbsp chia seeds
  • 300 ml milk or plant milk
  • 1 tsp cocoa powder
  • Honey or jaggery syrup, to taste

How to make it

  1. Whisk everything together in a jar for a full minute. Chia clumps the second you stop paying attention.
  2. Wait ten minutes, then whisk again — this second pass is what gives you an even pudding instead of a chia brick.
  3. Chill for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
  4. Divide into two glasses and top with whatever fruit you have.

Worth knowing No heat, so the cultures stay alive. Chia also brings its own fibre on top of the 4 g in the sachet.

Butter Coffee

Cold Coffee Frappé

The café version costs three hundred rupees and contains almost no protein. This one takes four minutes.

  • Time4 min
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 28 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO Butter Coffee
  • 150 ml chilled milk
  • 1 tsp instant coffee
  • 6–8 ice cubes
  • A little jaggery or honey, optional

How to make it

  1. Dissolve the instant coffee in a tablespoon of hot water first, then cool it — undissolved granules are gritty in a cold drink.
  2. Blend the milk, KABO, coffee and half the ice on high for 30 seconds.
  3. Add the rest of the ice and blend in short pulses, so it stays thick rather than watery.
  4. Pour into a tall glass. It's meant to be drunk immediately.

Worth knowing Blending generates a little heat — nothing that matters for the protein, but don't run the blender for minutes on end.

White Chocolate Blueberry

Blueberry Protein Muffins

Makes six. Real muffins that happen to carry protein, rather than protein pretending to be a muffin.

  • Time32 min
  • Makes6 servings
  • Proteinabout 9 g each
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO White Chocolate Blueberry
  • 120 g atta or a wholewheat–maida mix
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 eggs
  • 80 ml milk
  • 60 ml oil or melted butter
  • 50 g jaggery powder
  • 100 g blueberries, fresh or frozen

How to make it

  1. Heat the oven to 180°C. Line a six-hole muffin tin.
  2. Whisk the flour, KABO and baking powder in one bowl; the eggs, milk, oil and jaggery in another.
  3. Fold wet into dry with about ten strokes — stop while it still looks slightly lumpy. Overmixing is what makes muffins rubbery.
  4. Fold in the blueberries, divide between the holes, and bake 18–20 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.

Worth knowing Toss frozen blueberries in a teaspoon of flour first so they don't sink to the bottom. Baked, so no live cultures here.

White Chocolate Blueberry

Protein Payasam

Festival payasam without the sugar crash afterwards. Serves three.

  • Time25 min
  • Makes3 servings
  • Proteinabout 12 g each
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO White Chocolate Blueberry
  • 40 g rice or broken vermicelli
  • 500 ml milk
  • Jaggery to taste
  • Cardamom, and a few cashews and raisins fried in ghee

How to make it

  1. Simmer the rice or vermicelli in the milk on low heat, stirring often, until soft — 15 to 18 minutes.
  2. Stir in the jaggery and cardamom, then take the pan off the heat.
  3. Let it cool for ten minutes. Add the KABO sachet to hot payasam and it will curdle and clump — this step is not optional.
  4. Whisk the sachet through the warm payasam, top with the fried cashews and raisins, and serve warm or chilled.

Worth knowing Jaggery and hot milk can split too. Add the jaggery off the heat as well if your milk is prone to it.

White Chocolate Blueberry

Green Recovery Smoothie

For the mornings when you know yesterday's meals were short on vegetables.

  • Time5 min
  • Makes1 serving
  • Proteinabout 29 g
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO White Chocolate Blueberry
  • 1 handful of spinach
  • ½ banana
  • 150 ml water or coconut water
  • 60 g curd
  • A squeeze of lemon

How to make it

  1. Blend the spinach with the water alone first, until there are no green flecks left. Nobody enjoys leaf fragments.
  2. Add the banana, curd, KABO and lemon.
  3. Blend for another 30 seconds until it's completely smooth.
  4. Drink it cold. The lemon keeps it from tasting flat.

Worth knowing The lemon does more than flavour — a little vitamin C alongside plant iron helps you absorb more of it.

Butter Coffee

Coffee Protein Popsicles

Makes six. Summer, and a freezer full of something better than what the ice-cream cart sells.

  • Time8 min+6 h chilling
  • Makes6 servings
  • Proteinabout 5 g each
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO Butter Coffee
  • 300 ml milk
  • 100 g curd
  • 1 tbsp honey or jaggery syrup
  • 1 tsp instant coffee, dissolved and cooled

How to make it

  1. Blend everything until completely smooth.
  2. Pour into moulds, leaving a centimetre at the top — it expands as it freezes.
  3. Freeze for at least 6 hours, ideally overnight.
  4. Run the mould under a tap for five seconds to release them cleanly.

Worth knowing Freezing doesn't destroy protein or micronutrients. Probiotic counts drop over weeks in the freezer, so eat these within a fortnight.

Either flavour

Baked Protein Oats

Halfway between porridge and cake. Bake it on Sunday, eat it Monday and Tuesday.

  • Time33 min
  • Makes2 servings
  • Proteinabout 20 g each
See the recipe

What you need

  • 1 sachet KABO (either flavour)
  • 80 g rolled oats
  • 1 ripe banana, mashed
  • 1 egg
  • 200 ml milk
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • A handful of berries or chopped nuts

How to make it

  1. Heat the oven to 180°C and grease a small baking dish.
  2. Mix everything except the berries until evenly combined, then let it stand five minutes so the oats drink some of the milk.
  3. Pour into the dish, scatter the berries over, and bake for 22–25 minutes until set in the middle and golden on top.
  4. Cut into two portions. It reheats fine the next morning.

Worth knowing Baked, so count on the protein and micronutrients but not the live cultures.

One honest note about heat. Protein, vitamins and minerals hold up fine to cooking and baking. The live probiotic cultures do not — they are killed by heat, and by long spells in the freezer. If the probiotics are the part you care about, stay with the no-cook recipes, or stir the sachet in after the pan comes off the stove.
