Eggs in my coffee... (it sounded nasty to me too)

If you like the idea of some good fat and good protein in your breakfast, and don't feel like cooking. Or, if you want a creamy latte but don't tolerate dairy well... I might have a delicious solution.
May I humbly present..."the Paleo Latté"






aka "Mo-Joe"
aka "Eeeew...  You put WHAT in your coffee!?"

RAW EGGS! If you're concerned about bacterial safety, you can just pour some boiling water over your eggs in a bowl, let sit 10-20 seconds, and then drain and dry them before cracking. 

1: Using an immersion blender in a wide mouth quart jar (or a regular blender), blend 2 raw eggs and 1-4 TBS organic coconut oil or MCT oil(Warning: If you are new to drinking high fat coffee, go easy on the coconut oil at first... Too much can have a laxative effect.)
2: With blender running, slowly pour about 12 oz freshly brewed French press coffee into eggs and continue blending until frothy. 
3: Pour into large mug or glass and enjoy! 
4: (Optional) Top with cocoa nibs for extra flair and a tasty crunch.
5: (DANGEROUS OPTION) add 1/2 tsp of sugar or honey while blending. This will make the beverage a little TOO good! :)

This can also work with fresh hot chai tea instead of coffee for a "Chai Latte"


I originally got the rough idea from Mark Sisson

  1. I recently tried this with freshly brewed decaf chai tea instead of coffee and some honey... Also quite tasty!
